Good question TB, but I don't think so. For instance had Tessio said (as maybe he should have to outsmart Michael) ..
"Yeah sure, I'll change my arrangements" what would Tom and Cicci and the rest have done? Waited areound for Michael to give them new orders?

Michael never intended to go to that meeting, and he believed Tessio was guilty.

As for Carlo, Michael got no such direct warning (that we saw) from his father, although it is a fact that Michael announced openly that Carlo would be his "right hand man" in Vegas. Since Vito made it very clear to Tom that Carlo should get a living but, he should NEVER know anythning about the family bisiness, Vito had to have discussed with Michael why this ruse was happening, and I would deduce that they agreed he had something to do with Sonny's murder.

Actually I think one of the reasons Michael did what he did to Carlo was to get that confession in front of witnesses so there could be no doubt that Carlo was guilty AND that Michael was one tough hombre, whou would even kill his brother in law.
