No, not at all.

also is it true that の can be used to change a verb into a gerund, if so what modifications must i make to the third sentence valid (3rd sentence: シさんは卒業するのができる)
You cannot say 卒業するのができる. You can say 卒業することができる.

The verb nominalizer の is used in the following ways.
食べるが好きです。 I love eating.
勉強するがきらいです。 I dislike studying.
さくぶんを書くはむずかしい。 It's hard to write compos.
