The items are seasonal, like all items that are seasonal they will and should be able to be placed in the Armory. Not to mention that Toshi P. Stated that it will not be possible to collect all the weapons from this event.

They didn't say it was it was not possible. Just that it would be "tough". And if it's not impossible, you know that there's gonna be folks that will do it. XD

You'll be able to earn all of the minions somewhat easily, but the weapons will be tough to get.

Yoshida: We wanted to make it so people could get as many of the weapons as possible, but Hino had some thoughts on this.

Hino: We wanted to make it so you have to put some thought into which weapon you want to aim for.

As for the topic at hand, putting the items directly in the mog store would pretty much kill the whole point of doing a cross-promotion. SE needs to get the referenced property right in everyone's faces so they know they exist. For a large portion of the FFXIV community who don't frequent the forums, they're likely barely aware that the Mogstation Store even exists. If they're going to cross-promote Yokai Watch, in-game is the way to do it.

That said, it's my personal opinion that this cross-promotion isn't appropriate. While I'm sure the game has lots of cross-demographic appeal, really Yokai Watch is a game aimed at kids, while FFXIV is intended for young adult and older. I'd rather see promotions with other games intended for an older age group.
