No, in Maryland, a landlord cannot evict a tenant immediately. A court order is required before any eviction can occur.
For nonpayment of rent, landlords can file for eviction without giving prior written notice. For lease violations or other issues, tenants are generally given a 7-day notice to correct the problem or move out.
