Can modern people learn classical Chinese to reach the level of the ancients?

It's hard.

On the basis of reality, it is relatively difficult for modern people to lay a good foundation for ancient Chinese. Because modern people's reading of ancient books is far less than that of the ancients, its cultural creation is also difficult to reach the amount of the ancients.

Judging from the language environment, there is no doubt that modern people do not have a big language environment of classical Chinese. The influence of language environment on people is subtle and far-reaching, and it is unconscious.

In terms of process, it is a two-way process for modern people to learn ancient Chinese, which also causes some difficulties.

In addition, after thousands of years of circulation, China's classical culture has been lost and damaged, and modern people inevitably lack comprehensiveness and integrity in the research process.
