Yes. There are legal moves in chess. Some of them Special (Rochade, e.p. Piece conversion). All moves not covered by the rules are illegal. The System will hinder you to make an illegal move (the Analysis board won't!)

What are you doing on a chess site, if you don't even know the basic rules of moving?

You don't think learners should be allowed here? We were all in that position once, remember.
