Yes, JKR can arrange it - if she makes it so that a person can leave his 
inheritance in his will to anyone he likes (but maybe it can be contested), 
my guess would be that he would leave the Black house to Tonks - daughter of 
his favorite cousin Andromeda - and leave some cash legacy and perhaps a 
personal item or two - photos of him and james together? - to Harry.

If he can afford a Firebolt even after not working because he was in prison 
or in hiding all that time, he probably has a sizable chunk in his vault - 
harry might feel guilty about that money, too.
