(OP)
Could I rename a slender column like wall to avoid seismic limits of ACI Code? Could I have big wide beams framed with slender "walls"? Wath about reinforcement development and about joints in this kind of structure?

Maybe there's some provision that states if you do some ultra Mojo analysis you can do what you want.
I think ACI 352 covers beam-column joints.
