Thank you. Can I deploy Nextjs API with this?

No, unfortunately you can't deploy the API directory like this, this is only for your static assets and for the api calls you will need a node server. You can use zeit's now to easily deploy the API, alternatively you can use any provider that supports node apps deployment and then running npm run build && npm run start.

Why is the title of this article "Server-Side Rendered Real-time Web App with Next.js, AWS Amplify" if Amplify doesn't support SSR? 🤔

Amplify Console doesn't support SSR but you can use the Amplify API to populate the data for your page on the server side
