As others have told you Scribus can't do that (yet).

You might want to check out the following project:

	http://acroformtool.sourceforge.net/man.html

I haven't tried any of this, so I might be utterly wrong, but the way I 
see it you could create a PDF with text fields from Scribus and then 
use acroformtool to fill in the detais. YMMV
