We don't know how long they were together before she died. All we know is that she was 24 and he was 18 when they met and got together.Please refresh my memory. It was never mentioned how long Neil and Lynette were together before she died giving birth to the MC, correct?
Your theory would only make sense if Neil and Lynette were together for a few years after she ran away to join him. They met when she was 18. Even if they had met at the very start of construction, and given that typically it takes a couple of years to finish building a hotel, Lynette would be in her very early 20's at most when she ran away to be with Neil.
So unless they had a few years together before MC's birth, it would be highly unlikely (although technically possible) for Lynette to have a younger sibling that has a son 2 years older than the MC, even if Lynette and Rusty's father were paternal twins like Maya & Derek.
It is very possible for a sibling of hers to have had a child before her. Let's say Lynette got pregnant at 26, if she had a younger sibling (brother, for example) who had his first child at 22 when Lynette was 24, then that makes them 2 years older than the MC.
I would like to think that she and Neil had a few good years together, because it doesn't feel like they got together when he was 18 and she was 24, she got pregnant at 24, and then died. My guess would be they had at least 4-5 years together before having the MC, which would be more than enough time for a cousin to have been born.
