Should I worry?

In our repository, every project has the subdirectory tree, branches, trunk, 
tags underneath them.  However, I found two projects created by developers 
recently directly via Tortoise which do not have branches, trunk, tags 
underneath them yet they're checkable.  Are they being revisioned?  What's 
my course of action?

I don't think you have anything to worry about.  Just create the
directories and (probably) move the existing files down into trunk. 
The directory structure is a convention and best practice, but it
isn't required.

What does "checkable" mean?

If something is in your repository, it's being versioned.

I don't understand what you're asking - your course of action is
really up to you how you want to handle the situation.  If developers
aren't following the rules, you can:
A) Implement hook scripts to prevent commits that don't meet whatever criteria
B) Prevent developers from performing actions like this altogether
(either by hook scripts or access permissions)
C) Enforce policy in a non-techical way (talk to them face to face)

You seem to believe that Subversion attaches some special meanings to  
the trunk, branches and tags directories. It does not. Subversion  
sees them just like any other directory in the repository. Only you  
and your developers interpret a special meaning. The absence of those  
directories means nothing more than the fact that you can't use them  
to make tags and branches. If you want those abilities, then create  
those directories and move the existing structure inside the new  
trunk directory.
