on Good Ear, is it cheating/detrimental to remember each tone as a note from a song/piece of music you know?

I don't think so. If it helps you, you might as well do it. Can't really see any reason why it would be bad.

If you can, that's an excellent skill (e.g., I know Bb and A from having heard tuning so many times...). However, you may get thrown by the odd out of tune instrument.
You're better learning intervals using the first two notes of songs you know (e.g., Twinkle Twinkle Little Star for a Perfect 5th).

Found the following website very useful for written exam preparation on sections B and C: https://www.musictheory.net/exercises
Ear training section is very useful for Section B on the exam, and Staff identification section is very for Section C.
For ear training, you can practise identifying chords/scales/intervals aurally which are played by a range of different instruments (especially helpful as the exam uses a range of instruments at a range of low and high pitches, not only piano)!
Online exercises are free, app is $4.00, called Tenuto: https://www.musictheory.net/products
