No, not the max pax load.
AB are quoting 206 pax as a 2 class premium W and Y cabins (like Primera Air had) which will allow that range with Aux tanks.
I agree the 752 with 189-206 pax (rather than 223-235) is similar load but a bit less range offering.
The latest A321neo can now be ordered with a variety of different door and exit configurations, including larger single pair or a double pair of over wing exits (not seen before on the 321) which can offer a max load of 240 pax for IT charters or a LCC.
As for MMA role - not sure
