No, it has to be the m0/0 interface. The management is not available through one of the other interfaces.

Yes, SFR module only binds with Management port. Could you elaborate your query about "what is the purpose of binding SFR module to any another interface?

Hi, thank you for your answer.
My management network is routed by my firewall, so i can't assign the same address space to two interface.

Thank you.

You don't have to assign an IP to the ASA on the management-port. You only assign an IP to the module and the ASA itself is managed in-band. That is also shown in the Quick-start guide linked above.
