On the ground, you can easily place a laser in an optically identical position as a star (near infinity). In space, I don't think this would be possible, since it would require that the laser, and the optics that would be required, would all be within a fraction of a wavelength of the true optical path. In the end, you would still need to align to a star anyways.

Interferometry works just fine with starlight.
