Can you break demon altars before Hardmode?

No, you cannot normally break Demon Altars before Hardmode; attempting to hit them with a hammer causes damage and does nothing, as they are designed to be unbreakable until you defeat the Wall of Flesh and enter Hardmode, which unlocks their destruction with the Pwnhammer to spawn Hardmode ores. While glitches or specific environmental interactions (like falling sand/slush) might destroy them without triggering Hardmode, this isn't the intended method and usually doesn't spawn ores, so it's generally advised to wait.
