Powerline question

It SHOULD, but from everything I have heard, seen and read, powerlines are a very much case by case scenario. They are intended to send the internet from one end of the house to another and designed to work through circuit breakers, since if they were on the same circuit, presumably you're close enough to use an ethernet cable already. Give it s shot and if it doesnt work, return it.

I was wondering if powerline will still transfer network connection over different rooms with different circuit breakers

When in doubt, re-format.
