Are you measuring the voltage on the 26 tube from filament pin to filament pin or from filament pin to chassis ground?
Across the two pins should be 1.5 V AC, but from either filament pin to ground there will be a DC voltage of around 5 to 10 V.
If you were referring to using the 100 V rated caps as the filament bypass, I don't think its a problem. There is only the bias voltage across the caps to ground, which is less than 10 Vdc.
