If I ask the customer to install SSMS on the data server (that is, not SQL Server but the server where VFP app reside) and I am connected to that server, will I be able to use the SSMS and maintain the SQL Server database of my application?

Yes, you will be able to handle SQL Server from any other machine with SSMS installed (of course if you have sufficient rights).
