Yes, Haylo, you can land below 1500m without DME. Not all ILS approaches have co-located DMEs and, assuming the particular approach does not have specific requirement for DME, CAT 1, 2 and 3 ILS approaches are available to the 767. The lowest requirements I have been subject to is 75m RVR for Cat 3B. Most Cat 1 approaches only require 550m visibility (RVR) and there are plenty of those without DMEs, so 1500m is easy.
