Can WMS insert data

WMS can be used to query georeferenced map images ([1]). But can it be used to submit georeferenced map images? For example, WFS can be used to query and insert features ([2]).

No, WMS is solely a portrayal mechanism, if you want to add data you need to use WFS-T as you link to in the question. If you want to insert raster coverages you need to make use of the WCS-T specification.
