That would work, IF the wheel was continuously accelerating.

Now OP if you want to get a better understanding of centrifugal force, I'd recommend getting a bucket full of water and spinning that around in circles.

With suction one would need the inhabitants of said space station to wear giant sails in special harnesses which in itself introduces it's own issues.

The other requirement is that suction would require a lot, more power than a wheel spinning in the vacuum of space.

However, there is another way to create gravity, magnets and an exoskeleton. One wears a special exoskeleton with magnets on its feet and the exoskeleton provides a resistance force that 'feels like gravity.'

While one still has to worry about one's coffee floating a way, one doesn't have to worry about bone degradation due to zero g.
