Yes. My main base is on an island and raid free. You just have to have no-spawn items spaced out to cover everything. I get warnings but nothing can spawn in. (basically usable objects like fires and workbenches and furnaces and torches and such, stuff you can interact with, create a 20m no spawn zone around them)
