will a 225/45 fit on a 7inch wheel and be suitable for autox?

Most people use a 215/40 IIRC on a 7" wide rim, but you can get away with a 225/45.

225 will work but the 215 will offer less sidewall deflection on a 7.0" wheel so, I would use a 215/45-17

Do Falken Azenis come in 214/45?

Check out www.falkentire.com
They come in 215/45 for a 16" rim, but not for a 17". The ST-115's come in 215/45/17 though.

I am looking for a new set of tires I can use in Auotx TSM. I really wanted a set of Azenis.
