I’m working on a project and trying to use JavaScript for validating all inputs that are entered by a user before inserting into the database.
Can we depend entirely on JavaScript for user input validation?

No; you emphatically must not.
Attackers can disable Javascript.
Attackers can even send raw HTTP requests so that Javascript doesn’t enter the picture in the first place.
