Answer

Yes, those sentences work.  The use of "during" and "while" in these sentences is accurate and appropriate :)

Answer

Yes, the sentences generally work well. Here are the slightly refined versions for clarity:
4. Can you wait for me while I try on this dress?
    * Correct as is.

5. I was asked a lot of questions during my favorite seminar.
    * "Favorite" is correct in American English. If you are using British English, it should be "favourite."

6. Don't open the door while it's moving.
    * Correct as is.

All the sentences are grammatically correct and use "during" and "while" appropriately.
