There are tons of MUDs with player-formed clans. Most likely, we invented it long before the games you're coming from

And most of the implementations I've seen are far more extensive than what you find in modern MMORPGs.

The reason they are called 'clans' and not 'guilds' is probably historical. Most of the MUD codebases already used 'guilds' to refer to the 'organizations' that define character classes.
