Yes, she can, unless there is some limitation in how the land was left to your aunt, which requires her to let you live in the house or which gives you that portion of the land on which the house rests (and you also own the house). Otherwise, there is no obligation for someone to allow someone to reside on their land, even if they have lived there before....and if you do own the house, but not the land, she can require you to demolish or move it, because she does not need allow another person's house to rest on her land.
