Yes, of course. The cache never becomes completely full as Squid is
automatically removing old objects when the cache is close to full.

The only case where a Squid cache becomes completely full is if you
shrink the size of an existing cache by editing squid.conf after it has
been filled.

reference_age is not related.

squid always deletes the older objects to make room for new objects when
needed.

in addition to this, reference_age periodically deleted objects older
than the reference_age. Since Squid-2.4 (or maybe 2.3, I do not
remember) Squid no longer does this.
