No, if atoms didn't exist then the things we are aware of are things not made up of atoms. So we are aware of the absence of atoms.
Since atoms do exist, as long as humans have existed we have been aware of things that have contained atoms, so in that sense we've always been aware of atoms, but we've never been aware of their separate existence until much more recently. So in that sense we've only been aware of atoms much more recently.
