From a gameplay aspect, yes it's still completely viable to start the game from complete scratch without buying platinum. It's tough, and takes time, but definitely possible.
From a company standpoint...I honestly have no clue where people are getting this idea that the game is going to get shut down soon. Yes, updates have been slower and smaller this year, and players are unhappy with the content, but that doesn't mean the game is going to get shut down. According to public online metrics, CH is still staying popular with a pretty high amount of monthly downloads, as well as making good money. There is no reason for VR to even consider shutting the servers down.
The only event I could see that might cause VR to completely shut down CH would be if VR went bankrupt, which isn't likely to happen anytime soon, especially with their other game getting close to launch.
That would also mean that players stop spending money on CH, so in actuality it'd be the players killing the game, not VR...take that as you will. As long as people continue to spend money on CH, it will still run.
