Hi dear,

No they cannot be a surgeon.
To become a surgeon one needs to  first pass Mbbs then pursue MS.

Hope this helps

Physiotherapists cannot perform surgeries in particular however; their concerned area of work is primarily preoperative and postoperative in order to restore natural bodily movement. Only a qualified surgeon is allowed to perform invasive practice of a surgery. You'll have to do MBBS first and then MS/MD to become a surgeon.
