I don't think so. I suspect real sensory input are very different from imagined ones, it's just that most of these differences aren't preserved by the process that turns sensory inputs into memories.
Meh. To a conscious mind this makes no difference internally.
I sometimes have to experimentally verify whether a stimuli is real or imagined. Like moving closer to the perceived source of a sound/noise to see if it gets louder or not. If it does, it's real, if it doesn't, then it isn't. As far as I know, this isn't a particularly unique thing that happens only to me.
