A:
If it is your house (title is in your name) and there are no co-owners then nobody can kick you out or move in without your consent. Find a landlord-tenant eviction attorney ASAP to help you kick them out. (You should have never let them in.)
If it is not your house then repost your question with the actual facts.
A: No, you cannot be evicted without due process of law. Contact a landlord-tenant attorney for legal defense. If someone tries to evict you without a court order, just call 911 and ask for the police.
