What is the difference between percentage change and percentage difference?

Percentage change compares an old value to a new value over time. Percentage difference (using the other calculator) compares two different things at the same time against their average.

Can a percentage increase be more than 100%?

Yes! If a value more than doubles, the increase is greater than 100%. For example, going from 50 to 150 is a 200% increase.

Why is a 50% decrease followed by a 50% increase not the original number?

Because the baseline changes. A 50% decrease from 100 is 50. A 50% increase from 50 is 75, not 100. You would need a 100% increase to return to the original 100.
