Yes, an 'eight month old' (singular month) can be considered a noun phrase (or even an open compound noun) and used as the subject or an object of a sentence or phrase; for example, 'An eight month old becomes very curious.'

Used as 'The baby is eight months old.', the noun 'eight' becomes an adjective describing the noun months.
