Can we apply community detection algorithms for word vector space? As I understand we can apply community detection algorithms such as Louvain to detect communities in a social network (i.e. involves people). 

But I am quite interested in knowing if we can use the same community detection algorithms such as Louvain to identify communities in word vector space (e.g., word2vec), instead of clustering?

This paper talks about various methods of community detection and might be helpful.
