Um Certainly!
I make tables all the time and don't have a planer or joiner. Now mind you there are times when I take my tops over to a local woodworker/cabinet maker and pay him a few $$'s to run my tops through his planer. He is able to plane as wide as 48" with a panel sander.
Much depends on what you want to build.
When starting out, the expense of equipment can be daunting, especially for the good stuff. I certainly cant/won't pay $$thousands out for equipment that is not often or rarely used.
