You absolute can fingerprint someone without JavaScript enabled. This article explains what signals a website can use when JS is disabled, and those signals include probing what CSS features your browsers supports.

Unfortunately it looks like the demo link in their article doesn’t exist anymore. It definitely used to, because I remember testing it few years ago. But the write up is still good.
Looks like the demo is open source: https://github.com/fingerprintjs/blog-nojs-fingerprint-demo
That's a cool project but most websites are using JavaScript for tracking, and I doubt most website have the afford to even use CSS just to track someone who doesn't have JS on.
