I develop a web editing application using API for Javascript. I wonder if it is possible to display an OSM basemap without some feature layers? I do not need text labels wit street names, tram-lines, churches and others.

Not without a fair amount of work on your part�?? you'll need to re-render and host your own tileset if you want to have control over what's labeled and what's not.

Do you mean I can't also choose what features layers to display? Let say I need streets, buildings, but no tram-lines. Is it possible with API?

The OSM tiles that are accessible via the map's basemap option is the default, pre-rendered tileset. You don't get access to features because you're using tiles. If you want to selectively show features, you'll have to render your own OSM tiles.
