As you are an 11th class commerce student, yes you can become an astronaut or study astronomy. It's not very late as you are in 11th only. So to get into the field of astronomy, you are adviced to change your subject in 12th only so that you do not face any problem in pursuing Bachelor's in astronomy. After that you can complete Masters in fields like MSc Astronomy etc. So yes, you still have chances of becoming an astronaut.

There seems no possibility of becoming an astronaut or studying astronomy being a commerce student as being a astronaut requires a master's degree in a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics)
Where as Astronomy courses are based on a combination of Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics, so students typically need to have PCM/PCMB subjects in Class 12 to be eligible.
