It depends. The easiest way is with SSH. Yes, you can then change whatever you like, as if you where sitting behind the machine itself. I take it you have root on your server.
On a related note, if you allow access to your server from remote locations over SSH, then be sure to disallow root logins for the machine. You can do that by editing /etc/ssh/sshd_conf and restarting the daemon. You can still change to root once you're in.

Nope. rm-rf does nothing (syntax error). rm -rf on the other hand deletes without prompting everything in the current and underlying directories. It's the equivalent of deltree in DOS.Running it while unsure of it's effect is a Bad Idea(TM). Running it as root is even worst.
But, as said, it's not formatting anything. It's deleting. You are probably looking for the mk[filesystemname]fs commands, such as mkreiserfs or mk2fs.
