Most sites just need a front end and can be made with javascript and html. Php provides a back end in case you need to communicate with a persistant database.
The lines are getting a little blurry now, since Javascript can also do back end via node.js. But that's sort of new⊠traditionally JS is just front end.
Pretty much every language has multiple frameworks to choose from, that is not a language-specific thing. For example some of PHPâs frameworks are WordPress, Laravel, Symphony, and Drupal. While Javascriptâs big ones are Vue, React, and Angular.
A common tech stack that uses PHP for the backend would be Laravel + Vue.
Almost any language can make a back end, so you have lots of choices there, but Javascript and HTML are the languages of all frontends.

No. PHP is a server-side language which can be used to serve webpages to the browser and perform operations on data returned. It also has its own frameworks like Lavarel and Yii. JavaScript is a client-side scripting language also with its own frameworks. Therefore you cannot replace JavaScript and HTML ("client-side") with PHP ("server-side").
