"How many pages are in the novel" is a question that has no correct answer.
The current English editions of Demons are between 700 and 900 pages.
There is a large variation in page counts in part because different versions contain different reader aids like an introduction and notes.
However, even if you ignore "extra" stuff, the same novel is never the same number of pages between different publishers because of differences in the page size, page margins, font, font size, and line spacing.
Using a different language of course changes the page count, too!
For this novel (known in English as The Possessed, Devils, or Demons), if you are concerned about whether it is complete, you should check to see whether it has a chapter called "At Tikhon's" or "Stavrogin's Confession". It may be included in the novel or as an appendix, or it may be missing.
