Hi
He prepares Moeszkowski's work for the exam and suits me to give an accent-sfz in tact 123 and 125 (as I pointed out), will it be in line with the rules?

If it's an exam follow what is written otherwise you risk critique.

I mean don't make a huge sfz since it's not written. But a sort of rhythmic accent would be appropriate. The A major is a resolution of the harmonic tension in the preceeding bar, on beat 1, and the style of the piece is rhythmic and energetic by the looks of it. So you can make an accent, just don't emphasize it too much so it sounds like a deliberate sfz.
