Yes I had an ancient boiler set up like that when we moved into our house, zero controls not even a timer nor a room stat.
We basically just switched it on at the wall when we wanted heat and off when not - not compliant to current regs of course . But you can heat your house/water like this. Ours has now been replaced following extension etc, but we used it like that for 3 or 4 years.
