Is it correct to say that in an empiricial classical method P(A), is equal to ratio of number of times in which event A occurs and the number of outcomes

this is an estimation of the probability, often referred to as experimental probability.
so Yes.

If you are actually doing an experiment a finite number of times, this ratio is only an estimate of the probability of A, the quality of the estimate being related to the number of times the experiment is repeated, but as a theoretical definition the ratio will trend to P(A) as the number of experiments tends to infinity.

Yes, this is correct. The probability of A happening is the #of times it will occur in the cycle, or the ratio.
