Sure. The immunosuppression enables abnormal cells to go unchecked by the immune system, but it isn't responsible for causing the abnormal skin cells. Similarly, immunosuppressants do not introduce diseases into the body, it just makes the immune system bad at fighting them.

Yes, I agree Jim. According to one report, sun exposure synergizes with immune suppression meds to create a much worse outcome.
