Yes, even without a written lease, a landlord can evict a tenant in Pennsylvania as long as they follow the proper legal eviction process. This includes providing the required notice period and obtaining a court order for eviction from the local district court.
Your landlord may require you to have renters' insurance, but not all do, and just because your landlord insures the space you rent does not mean that you are covered.
As a tenant, you are legally responsible for the lease agreement that you signed with the landlord and property owner. While you can choose to live with someone who is not on the lease, some potential complications and risks come with this choice. The landlord could choose to have the non-tenant evicted.
You can still give them written notice to quit the premises (30 days) and if they still refuse to leave, file in the common pleas court in the county where your property is residing for an unlawful detainer. Once you prevail then you can call the sheriff and have the sheriff evict them for you.
Some leases automatically renew unless you give notice that you plan to move. Other leases end automatically, which means you will need to sign a new lease if you want to stay. In Pennsylvania, tenants are usually required to give a written notice before moving out, often 30 to 60 days before the lease ends.
The only time someone can live with you without being on the lease is if you are on the lease. If you are the leaseholder, you can invite people to live with you whether or not they want to be the leasee. If you aren't the leaseholder, you can only have guests stay with you if they don't want to be on the lease.

term lease is from 12 months up to 24 months. A standard lease can last from 24 to 48 months. A longterm lease is greater than 48 months and can be up to 96 months.
Short-term leases last less than two years — often just 3-12 months. You can also take over someone else's lease for whatever time remains. A short-term car lease might be more budget friendly if you need a car for just a limited time.
