my tank is fully cycled and it has the rock mountain, fake plants, a play sand substrate, and possibly a sword tail plant.

See no reason why not.
Keep an eye on water parameters after adding the fish.
Good luck and enjoy.

also if i ever plan to get another puffer or fish (as a test) would it be better to get a male or female?
which one is less agressive?

When picking out the puffer(s), look for nice rounded bellies & active swimmers.
Aggression is not very predictable between sexes. I've seen very mean males and females alike. The females tend to be a little less aggressive, but this is not much of a rule to go by. 3 DPs is generally better than 2, but would be pushing the limits of a 10g. My preference would be to stick with 1... It will be very happy in that tank! Nice work.
