No. While some states may expressly allow a vehicle to be operated on private property without a CDL (although it does put them in conflict with the FMCSR), you absolutely cannot legally operate a tractor trailer or commercial straight truck on public property and roadways without possessing the appropriate class of licence for that vehicle. Now, if that tractor trailer is a registered farm vehicle, rather than a commercial vehicle, the story will be a bit different, and different states have different regulations on that.

What are class A drivers license?

Class A, both in the case of commercial and non-commercial licences permits the operator to drive combinations over 26,000 lbs. GVWR, in which the vehicle in tow is rated at greater than 10,000 lbs. A Class A CDL doesn't necessarily allow you to drive a tractor-trailer - if you don't road test on one, but rather, some other combination which falls within Class A CDL requirements (for example, Ford F650 and a trailer rated at over 10,000 lbs), you'll get an "8" restriction - No tractor-trailers.
