Anyone can sue for anything, so the technical answer to your question is yes. From what you've written, you do seem to have a good case against the people who claimed that you were a thief, assuming that they knew this to be false when the published it. Not sure about Facebook; it may depend on how indisputable the proof was that you showed facebook to prove that the statements were false.
