Is it possible for natties to maintain a good hormones profile when they are true 8% bodyfat? Like striated quads, veins on abs etc. or is gear likely required to have that without impairing your hormonal production.

Short term you can pull it off. long term you are screwed. there was a german natural bodybuilder who was rather successful and he had massive health issues which developed throughout his career due to his (mal)nutrition and stress related to low BF%.
 
Even true 10% will likely cause hormonal issues if natty. There’s nothing to envy about a natty 10% bf or lower that has some sort of muscle mass. You’re miserable very often and lack lots of personal freedom, no matter what anyone admits. Whenever I see a picture of that I think, “wow if he were on gear he could actually sustain that for longer and look even better”.

Exception to above being someone with good enough genetics, but not 99% of people
 
As far as short term yes but it will cause issues if you're trying to maintain this long term. There's things like enclomiphene that can help boost your natural production but still, that's just a bandaid.
