Silksong hidden achievements list
Silksong has 16 hidden achievements. While some of these involve defeating a boss, they are all tied to the game's story one way or the other. So yes, you will need to replay Hornet's adventure multiple times to get all of the game's achievements! (Though you'll most likely have to do that anyway for the speedrunning achievement…)
For a final time - some of the achievements contain Silksong spoilers. Read at your own risk!

How hard is it to get every Silksong achievement?
What's clear from the Silksong achievement lists above is that it will be quite hard to get them all. You might find it slightly easier if you're a Hollow Knight expert, but remember - while they're similar, Silksong is still a completely new game and Hornet does play differently compared to the Knight. Don't be surprised if you still encounter a learning curve!
Judging by how the 'Speed Completion' achievement tasks you with 100% completing Silksong in under 30 hours, I estimate that it could take someone a minimum of 40 hours to get every achievement. (And that's my rough minimum guess. It could easily be higher depending on your skill with the game.) Don't forget that you also need to complete the 'Speedrunner' achievement, which tasks you with completing the game in under five hours.
Basically - the time related achievements are most likely going to be the roadblocks you encounter when trying to get every single Silksong achievement! Due to this, my advice is to simply enjoy your first play through of Silksong. Take in all of the hard work and love Team Cherry have put into the game!
Once you've finished Silksong for the first time, I recommend focusing on the 'Speed Completion' achievement first. You should have a strong grasp of the game by this point and the extra experience you gain from this playthrough will make the 'Speedrunner' achievement easier to reach.
Best of luck getting every Silksong achievement!
