Can suade be used to make a strop? Ive never seen one but it seem like it would be good for paste or spray,or even instead of canvas. Can it?

Yes. I have seen some strops whose rough side is suede-like.
I don't see why it wouldn't work. I think it might be better as an intermediary between the linen and leather, or as you pointed out it could be nice for the application of pastes and sprays.
I have a paddle strop I made with suede to use after my pasted strops before my wool strop and it works good it just has a lot of draw to it
Wasn't there a song: "Lay off of my Blue Suede Strop"?
