There is no air brake endorsement - if you don't take both the written air brake test, and do your road test in a vehicle equipped with air brakes, you get a restriction barring you from operating an air brake equipped CMV.

But yes, it is possible to have a Class A CDL with a "no air brake" restriction.

The requirements for a Class A CDL are that the vehicle be used on a commercial, for-hire basis, that the Gross Combination Weight Rating be over 26,000 lbs., and that the vehicle in tow (the trailer) have a weight rating of over 10,000 lbs. It doesn't have to be a tractor-trailer. You can road test in something like a Ford F650. The F650 is rated at 26,000 lbs - that in itself does not require a CDL. If you attach an eight ton trailer to it, you now have a vehicle requiring a Class A CDL. You can take your Class A CDL road test in that, and you'll receive two restrictions - "no air brakes" (only applicable to CMVs - you can still drive an air brake vehicle not requiring a CDL), and "no tractor-trailers".

There is no air brake endorsement. A CDL driver who does not complete and pass the written air brakes test AND complete and pass the road test in a vehicle equipped with air brakes gets a restriction prohibiting them from operating a commercial vehicle equipped with air brakes.

Can you obtain a Class A CDL license for a truck and camper that has no air brakes?

You can get a Class A CDL without air brakes - you'll just have a "no air brakes" restriction which prohibits you from operating a CMV equipped with air brakes. The vehicles you road test have to be commercial vehicles subject to FHWA regulations - recreational vehicles are exempt, so you cannot get a CDL with one.
