When a dry, tickle cough lingers and lingers after other viral symptoms get better... does this mean the virus is still in your system?

No: Could be due to heartburn, allergies or air pollution, humidity. These are items in the environment and not just a virus. Heartburn is a structural change in the stomach, esophagus. See a Doctor if it continues to bother you.
