No. A person cannot be both the Petitioner and the debtor. If the debt that was paid was not covered in the bankruptcy filing or the plan, an amendment needs to be filed to advise the court and the Trustee of this payment.

Generally, no. If there is a defense to a claim, however, that defense can be raised (and litigated) in the bankruptcy case.
