No, in the NFL, a fumble cannot be advanced by the offense. If the offense recovers their own fumble, the ball is dead at the spot of the recovery. If the defense recovers the fumble, they can advance it.
Yes, a fumble is a fumble, the cause doesn't matter.
In the NFL, a fumble recovery occurs when a player gains possession of the ball after it has been dropped or lost by the opposing team. The player who recovers the fumble can advance the ball, and possession is awarded to the recovering team. If the fumble occurs in the end zone, it can result in a touchdown or a touchback.
No
When a player advances a fumble in the NFL, it means they pick up the loose ball and run with it. If the player who recovers the fumble advances it into the opponent's end zone and scores a touchdown, the team gets possession of the ball at the spot of the recovery.

A fumble is a fumble, no matter what direction it goes in, but a player cannot advance the ball forward through the air once they have passed the line of scrimmage.

In the NFL, players are not allowed to run the center sneak. This is because the lineman can not be a ball carrier unless there is a fumble.
In 1964, Jim Marshall of the Vikings recovered a fumble 66 yards backwards into his own end zone, resulting in a safety. This was officially called a "-66 yard fumble recovery"
The defense will have the ball at their own 20 yard line.
