Does Paraview support particle effects simulation?

Can you give a bit more details on what you are trying to achieve ? Videos or images are ok.

Particle effects, such as fire, smoke, fog, rain.
A particle system is a technique in game physics, motion graphics, and computer graphics that uses many minute sprites, 3D models, or other graphic objects to simulate certain kinds of "fuzzy" phenomena, which are otherwise very hard to reproduce with conventional rendering techniques - usually highly chaotic systems, natural phenomena, or processes caused by chemical reactions.
Introduced in the 1982 film Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan for the fictional "Genesis effect", other examples include...

I find one video on the web. How to realize the fire simulation using Paraview?

You should use either Volume Rendering or Raytracing.

How to realize the fire simulation using Paraview?
Note that you cannot create a simulation in ParaView, you will only be able to visualize it (using volume rendering and an appropriate color map).
In order to create a dataset, you will have to use an external software (OpenFOAM for example)
