It probably depends on the state but at least sometimes it is possible to
have a license from one state and register your car in another if you have
a valid reason to do so.
 
When I was in grad school in Ohio I had Ohio plates and a New York license;
they allowed this because I had a New York resident's student loan and as a
condition of that loan I had to maintain my New York license. On the other
hand I didn't want to pay New York insurance rates and legally I was
required to register the car in Ohio anyway because that is where the car
spent the majority of time.
 
Geico (I know it's not a popular word around here, too bad) had no problem
with me having Ohio registration and a New York license. I never got pulled
over by cops so I can't report how they would react.
