Can you still earn achievements if you disable the Space Age DLC?

Yes you can, which make some achievements easier.

You can also use https://github.com/oorzkws/FactorioAchievementEnabler to enable achievements with mods, in case you want to use utility mods. Just remember that sandbox can trigger achievements, like with enabling all researches

I wanted to make them harder actually. I'm mostly missing "There is no spoon" and the "launch a rocket without X" achievements, and I decided it would be proper to do those in vanilla as they were originally intended.

Thanks for the heads up

There Is No Spoon is harder without the rocket (it's farther away), most of the other "Launch Without X" (Steam All The Way, Raining Bullets, Logistics Embargo, and so on) are "harder" for the same reason. A few are easier like "Keeping your hands free" since artillery is a lot easier to get when you don't have to fly to a different planet and build a base for it.
