<p>Yes, it is possible to send even 1 satoshi</p>

Sending back $100.00 would require a change address for the 0.01 which means you run into the 10k satoshi txfee again.

I will send 2 inputs + 2 outputs (for example: 100.01 + 5.00 => 100.00 + 5.01 change to myself)

Yes, it is possible to send even 1 satoshi

But you will be forced to pay 10000 satoshis as transaction fee.
