Yes astronauts do control the space shuttle.
During lift off and 9 and half minutes after the lift off most of the things are controlled by the computers on board but after that everything is in the hands of astronauts.
During landing too everything is controlled by the team of astronauts.

Astronauts do not control the space shuttle manually during flight. The space shuttle's systems are mostly automated, with the astronauts monitoring the systems and making adjustments as needed. Pilots and commanders can manually control the shuttle during specific phases of the mission, such as docking or landing.
