Is it possible for a veteran to get a DoD civilian job without having a bachelors degree?

100% yes. They base it on experience just as much as education. As a matter of fact. I am just short of my Bachelors Degree and I have a GS-11 position. Reach out to me if you want some guidance.

Do you know if GS employees get the same benefits as active duty members; and would my military time continue? i.e. If I get out this contract I will be at 7 years of service...and I work 13 years of GS and that would put me at 20yrs

There are many Federal positions that do not require a degree. For the most part it is easier to advance beyond junior pay grades. Now if you seek Federal Law Enforcement Border Patrol, Customs, ICE, Secret Service, Park Police etc no degree required, I know many at GS15 with little or no college. Hmm. Thank you for your service.
