No, you cannot format a floppy disk using NTFS, as NTFS is designed for larger storage devices like hard drives and SSDs. Floppy disks typically use FAT12 or FAT16 file systems due to their limited capacity (usually 1.44 MB for 3.5-inch disks). Attempting to format a floppy disk with NTFS would not be practical or supported by most operating systems.
