Based on the above noted specification, yes these tubes will work in your Cary AE211 without issue. I have a lot of 845 tubes, but unfortunately, not the Sophia 845 Mk3 Carbon plate, therefore, I cannot comment on their sound.

Woodpark, what tubes do you have in your 211AE now?

It would be nice if you could report back on the Sophia's once you have them installed. I have the same amp, and would like to know :)
