I'm sure there are schools you can go to depending on how old you are, colleges offer auto classes.

I never finished high school and after that I never went to any college, but I fix all problems on my family cars just by reading comments here and watching Youtube videos because I don't make that much money to pay a mechanic.

There is some basics I call it you need to learn about like testing & using with a voltmeters and specialized tools, Get a foundation to build upon. I went to school but I also still learn everyday why you say because as time marches forward so does the Technology, it advances and the tools used to do so, So learning never stops. I would say sure you can learn alot by youtube and sites like this but I do think since your willing to learn, do some of it all, find a local tech school and/or high school classes too, no reason to limit yourself, you never know you may want to continue in this field, a certification or diploma can and will help you with whatever you decide to do your own or others mechanic work.
