Yes, "raise" works well instead of "make" -- and in 3 and 6, the verb could also be "ask."
One suggestion, as an alternative, is this:
5. If you want to raise a rebuttal to the speaker's point, raise your hands.
1. If you want to raise a counterargument about the argument/speech, raise your hands.
2. If you want to raise a rebuttal about the argument/speech, raise your hands.
3. If you want to raise a question about the argument/speech, raise your hands.
4. If you want to raise a counterargument to the speaker, raise your hands.
5. If you want to raise a rebuttal to the speaker, raise your hands.
6. If you want to raise a question to the speaker, raise your hands.

Can we use 'raise' instead of 'make'? Is the preposition used properly? What other prepositions can we use?
