No you can't. You can only fair catch a scrimmage or free kick, both of which are defined as legal kicks. The rule book makes no distinction between either. In fact, the rule book only defines an illegal kick.

It does if it was originally a legal kick. A legal kick doesn't lose it's status as a kick by being illegally kicked.
