Answer

All US postage stamps issued since the Civil War (i.e., 1861-65) are still valid for postage at the price indicated on the stamp. So yes, you can still use a US stamp released in 2002.

Special Delivery stamps are no longer valid. They never paid postage but paid for an added service that is no longer available.

Here in the UK collectors often use old (1971 onwards- decimal currency) stamps for postage- I recently received a package with 20 different values from 5p to 22 1/2p on it ! All perfectly legal. Stamps are officially legal tender in the UK- you can pay a bus or train fare with them, theoretically- though I wouldn't like to try it with most of our bus drivers....
