Can my landlord lock me out of my home without filing for eviction?

No, the landlord must go through the summary ejectment process through the court in order to evict a tenant. Under new case law (Rucker) the landlord may obtain an accelerated eviction for criminal activities in a household whether the tenant knew of the activities or not.
