Answer 1

You can't include an if condition inside an array. Define the primary portion of your array like this:
$find = array(
'!\[h1\](.+)\[/h1\]!isU',
'!\[b\](.+)\[/b\]!isU',
'!\[i\](.+)\[/i\]!isU',
'!\[u\](.+)\[/u\]!isU',
'!\[strike\](.+)\[/strike\]!isU',
'!\[spoiler\](.+)\[/spoiler\]!isU',
'!\[url=(.*?)\](.*?)\[/url\]!is',
'!\[player\](.+)\[/player\]!isU',
'!\[quote=(.*)\]!siU',
'!\[/quote\]!si'
);
And then use a condition to merge the rest:
if ($show_smileys == true) {
$smiles = array(
'#:p#is',
'#:eek:#is',
'#:rolleyes:#is',
'#;\)#is',
'#:o#is',
'#:D#is',
'#:\(#is',
'#:mad:#is',
'#:\)#is',
'#:cool:#is'
);
$final = array_merge($find, $smiles);
}

Answer 2

You can't put if in the middle of an array, it can only be used where statements are allowed. Do it this way:
$find = array(
'!\[h1\](.+)\[/h1\]!isU',
'!\[b\](.+)\[/b\]!isU',
'!\[i\](.+)\[/i\]!isU',
'!\[u\](.+)\[/u\]!isU',
'!\[strike\](.+)\[/strike\]!isU',
'!\[spoiler\](.+)\[/spoiler\]!isU',
'!\[url=(.*?)\](.*?)\[/url\]!is',
'!\[player\](.+)\[/player\]!isU',
'!\[quote=(.*)\]!siU',
'!\[/quote\]!si'
);
$smileys = array(
'#:p#is',
'#:eek:#is',
'#:rolleyes:#is',
'#;\)#is',
'#:o#is',
'#:D#is',
'#:\(#is',
'#:mad:#is',
'#:\)#is',
'#:cool:#is'
);
if ($show_smileys) {
$find = array_merge($find, $smileys);
}
