is it possible to route joystick hole without router...

This is kind of easy but also a pain.  Trace your mounting plate with a razor and press as hard as you can.  Peel away the MDF.  Repeat until you reach your desired depth.  Once you get down like 1/16" you can use sandpaper or something to keep the area as flat as you can.  It's not that hard but it will take a while.

EDIT: A sharp chisel will make it go much faster.  I used one to remove MDF underneath my CP but in the corners only because my router did the rest:

Maybe you could borrow a router? What part of the world are you in?
