Use pathlib and format-strings:

from pathlib import Path
FOLDER = Path("/home/administrator/Desktop/folder/")

def createfolder():
    FOLDER.mkdir(exit_ok=True)
    for i in range(1,11):
        (FOLDER / f"Fichier{i}.txt").mkdir(exit_ok=True)

createfolder()

You cannot concatenate a string and an interger.

Convert your i into a string using str(i)

class test:
    def createfolder(self):
        import os
        if not os.path.exists("/home/administrator/Desktop/folder/"):
            os.makedirs("/home/administrator/Desktop/folder/")

        else: print("the folder already exist")

        for i in range(1,11):
            if not os.path.exists('/home/administrator/Desktop/folder/Fichier' + str(i) + ".txt"):
                os.makedirs('/home/administrator/Desktop/folder/Fichier' + str(i) + ".txt")
