If you move to a state and turn over your old license for that state's license does that make you a legal resident of that state?

No, and in many states you need to have other proof that your are a resident before you can obtain a license. For certain state requirements, say in-state tuition, there may be a residency requirement, but you are a resident of the state that you live in (most of the time). The driver's license can be used as evidence of that residency, but may not be conclusive, depending upon which agency rules you are required to follow.

Can you get license plate for a car and not have driver license in the same state?
All states that I am aware of require you to get a driver's license for that state when you become a resident, so you can't live in a state and legally continue to use a driver's license from some other state. Also, you're required to register your car in the state where you live, so you can't legally get a license plate for a state where you don't live.One way I can think of to get around this is if if you're in the military (which allows you to maintain your driver's license in your home state regardless of where you're stationed) and your spouse is a legal resident of the state in which you're stationed. You could license the car in your spouse's name and obtain a local license plate while still having your driver's license from your home state.
