Probably not. In many states, driving while suspended and driving while revoked are covered by the same statute. This is the case in Michigan. The two charges are considered, for all practical purposes, to be the same.

The charges are normally expressed driving while suspended or revoked, and there I do not believe you have a defense based on your question.

It is the same criminal statute so it is not wrong.

Probably not. In Michigan, it falls under the same statute driving while having a license suspended, revoked, or denied.
