Yes. 
PCI11010/PCI11414 chip's PCS support SGMII/2500Baxe-X I/F at 2.5Gpbs
We need to over clocking at a bit rate of 3.125 Gbps for 2.5Gbps event SGMII
I/F

>From data sheet:
"The SGMII interface also supports over clocking at a bit rate of 3.125 Gbps for an effective 2.5 Gbps data rate. 10 and
100 Mbps modes are also scaled up by 2.5x but are most likely not useful."

Yes.

This LAN743x driver support following chips
 1. LAN7430 - GMII I/F
 2. LAN7431 - MII I/F
 3. PCI11010/PCI11414 - RGMII or SGMII/1000Base-X/2500Base-X
