//
 if((Timer1.asSeconds()>=2))
            {
                clock1.restart();

                class random random1;
                enemy1.rect.setPosition(random1.random_function(screen.getSize().x), random1.random_function(screen.getSize().y));
                enemyArray.push_back(enemy1);

            } 
// 
for(deque<enemy>::iterator iter1=enemyArray.begin(); iter1!=enemyArray.end(); iter1++)
        {


            enemyArray[temp1].update();
            enemyArray[temp1].updateMovement();
            screen.draw(enemyArray[temp1].sprite);
            temp1++;
        }

Instead of stopping the clock you can check in the if statement how many enemies you have. If you have 5 or more don't create any new ones.

This line creates 5 enemies from the start:

deque<enemy> enemyArray(5);

If you want zero enemies at the start you should do:

deque<enemy> enemyArray;
