SFML is a library, it doesn't write code.

Also please fix your link to something less monstrous.

For the 3D graphics, you'll need OpenGL or another library. For the rest, SFML will assist you, but whether it's the right tool for the job depends on what you exactly plan to do.

Thor Library: particle systems, animations, dot products, ...

Of course you can. You could also use a number of other libraries.
SFML just provides some facillities for you to use (or not use) it does not, in any way, restrict what you can and cannot write. That's entirely up to your own imagination and skill.

I don't see a fix in the link, we still know that your window size is 1280x923 and that you started your search with "ran online" and then added "ran online gameplay" etc...

The hard truth is: Anyone who has to ask this question does not have enough experience in programming. If you're unable to simply guess what the boundaries of a game you want to make are and what technology is involved, you're not ready to approach such a game in general.
Here are two other source that might help understand what you're up against: #1 #2

If you want a direct answer instead: Yes, SFML can be used to make an MMORPG.

Read those links that eXpl0it3r gave you. Then read them again. That's real solid advice right there.
