Yes but what do you mean by online . It can be a sign of a catfish if they dont want to ft . If not then yes a online can be the start of great relationships via: ig, sc, twitter etc
I believe that online relationships cannot have the same depth and emotion as face-to-face relationship. When you are online you can't really express your true emotions. Yes you can communicate with others online, but you miss out on the true emotions that you get when you are face to face with another person. You can see the emotions in there eyes and body language that is something that you can't get from online.
