If you just study a subject on your own without going to school would you still be able to get a job in that area

Unlikely, as you have no tangible evidence of what you have learned.

While it is not that likely, I say it is still possible. I would say that you need to be dang good at what you do, and maybe have connections and/or some luck!
-
You should, actually. Isn't what you know, not how you learned it, the important thing? I never went to driving school, and am a much better driver, with a spotless record, then my sister who did waste her time and money going to a drivers ed course.

Very unlikely. What the employer wants to see is work. College is work. A degree shows that you completed the work. Self-teaching a subject would need a very good explanation, and I can't imagine what that could be. Look at people with two year degrees. Whenever someone with a four year degree shows up, many employers will give priority to the four year, even if the two year individual has twenty years of experience. While what you say can and has been done, you'd need to demonstrate a vastly superior knowledge in that subject. Almost on par with celebrities.
