No, not strictly speaking. Sulfuric acid is a mineral acid. It is made by reacting Sulfur Trioxide with water. Sulfur Trioxide IS a non-metal oxide.

What is the difference in mixing magnesium oxide with sulfuric acid than mixing magnesium carbonate with sulfuric acid?

Magnesium Oxide and Magnesium Carbonate are very different, Magnesium Oxide is Magnesium fused with Oxygen whereas Magnesium Carbonate is Magnesium fused with Carbon and Oxygen. The suffix "ate" means that an oxygen atom is involved. This added element (carbon) means that there will be a slight change in product. The chemical formula for Magnesium carbonate is MgCO3 whereas Magnesium oxide is MgO. See how there are two extra oxygens and one extra carbon? Add them together and you have CO2 and this is your difference. The difference in mixing magnesium oxide with sulfuric acid rather than mixing magnesium carbonate with sulfuric acid is that sulfuric acid and Magnesium carbonate create CO2 whereas Magnesium Oxide and sulfuric acid do not.
