Hi there, welcome! Yes, tanking is a thing... there are aggro/hate list mechanics that allow players to influence (on purpose or on accident) the player to whom the target is dealing direct damage.
Loramin will be here shortly to give you a link to the wiki where you can read up on the classes and races. Warriors, Paladins, and Shadowknights are all good choices and all have their pros and cons.
