VPN server is a function (or a role) that can be builtin in a router software or installed on a more generic purpose operating system (linux, windows, etc...)
It is a matter of choice wether to use the VPN function that may be available on a router or to use another device to perform this role.
Since it is highly related to pure networking, and you usually want to configure some fire-walling on the traffic that goes through the connection, it makes sense to use a VPN-capable router that also provide advanced fire-walling and other security functions, but once again it is a choice, and there's no hard rule here.

A VPN tunnel requires a tunnel endpoint or termination - where packets are encapsulated or extracted.
Whether you call that endpoint server or router or if it's integrated in some device doesn't matter, but you can't do without.

Purely as a response to the title. You can setup a VPN without a sever if you'd setup a SSH tunnel. Second option would be using wireguard (experimental).
Both protocols have a more peer to peer nature than classic VPN and don't require you to install, secure and maintain a full blown VPN server.
Personaly I've used the SSH option quite a few times to jump over a firewall or connectivity to the home network.
