To simply have a concept, no. To state that this concept is objective, however, demands rigor.
The examples you offered are easy and simple choices, but many choices in life are highly ambiguous. Sometimes there simply isn't a right answer, and many times the 'better' choice is not obvious at all. And, even easy choices can have unforeseen consequences. If I let a car merge ahead of me, I'm being courteous. But, what if that car ends up hitting a kid two later, a kid they would not have hit if I was selfish and let them wait because they might never have been close to each other? It isn't my fault because you can't know something like that will happen, and yet it happened because of something I did. You just can't know. So, is greatness intent? Accident? Both?
The other major problem with a God of infinite greatness is that that old Problem of Evil. If greatness is a measure of being/doing good, as you appear to be saying, then clearly God is not infinitely great.
