No, they cannot be adjusted beyond design parameters.

The interface may allow you to enter arbitrary numbers beyond design parameters but the chip will not obey it. In the case of the DIR-615 the default transmit power is 18dBm and the maximum it will ever go to nomatter what you try to set is 20dBm.

I thought antennas only affect the gain and therefore impact the signal
Signal != amplifier output power
