Unfortunately, there is an agreement among states called the "Driver's License Compact" under which they share driving records and information and honor each other's suspensions and revocations. While it's possible that some mistake was made and the information from State A did not in fact get to State B--it's the government; they sometimes make mistakes--it would take some error or failure for you to be able to get a license in another state; if the system is working as it should, it will not be able to.
