I don't think the Raven represents Lenore, for the simple idea that the Raven answers "nevermore" to his query about seeing her in the afterlife. If it was a form of Lenore, she/he would be there already, and answering "nevermore" about him seeing her when it is later stated the Raven will never leave his window, as the sickening grief he feels will never leave, seems like a contradiction. If it will never leave, and he will never see her, how could the raven be Lenore? I don't think gender projection/description has anything to do with it.
