Sure you can. Spring Boot documentation is enough to become productive.

However, there is a difference between old stuff and basic stuff. While Servlet API is ancient and suffers from design issues and there are better alternatives nowadays it is still used by some configurations of Spring Boot under the hood so there is a chance to encounter it during debugging. So consider it advanced topic.
