My flight to Vienna was scheduled for April 9, 2022. This is also the date when my visa starts. However, it was rescheduled to April 8. Can I still enter Austria a few hours before my visa starts or wait in the airport for a few hours before passing the passport check?

No, you will not be allowed to enter Austria before the visa starts just because the airline has rescheduled your flight. You must expect that the airline will refuse you to board if you are landing before your visa becomes valid.
You should contact the airline and ask to be rescheduled to a later date instead.
