Yes, their land rights are recognized by the US government. So, an ordinary citizen can be banned from their reservation, and it’s illegal for you to be there. They have tribal police, who can catch you and put you in jail.

There are special cases, like federal law enforcement officers performing their official duties, but the system has been in place for many decades and most of those cases have been resolved in the courts.
