It's not allowed according to the rules:

http://support.na.square-enix.com/ru...2&tag=users_en

2.3 Commercial Use. You may not exploit the Game for any commercial purpose (for example, advertising any product or service in-game, or use by the operator of a cyber café) without Square Enix's prior written consent.

But as many have observed through SE's lack of enforcement, the rules are mostly suggestions. If you advertise using the PF and don't say in the PF listing that you're selling for real money, nothing will happen.
