I was wondering, my organization wants to have a web site
with interactive forums, chats, and blogs. I was wondering,
can php handle this?

What I want to do is have where one person can decide to chat
with someone else who is currently online. A pop-up comes up
saying so-and-so wants to chat with you. In other words, I want
it to be able to appear that person A wants to chat with YOU (person B)
where person A is instigating the chat and person B instantly gets
the message. Can PHP do this or would I need to use something like
AJAX? Thanks.

AJAX and PHP will probably both be required.

You can accomplish this with PHP and JavaScript.
