Teachnically; yes.
But, as always, our government is vague. They say "The People of Texas must agree to divide the state". Well, what does that mean? Does that mean if just one person, out of the millions in Texas, can prevent this from happening? Is there a minumum age to vote on the issue? Or can a 12 year old be held be accountable in the situation? Or, what if people simply don't vote?
It would've happened right away if it were to have ever happened at all.

Yes. It can be divided into five states in all. The authority is in the Texas State Consitution and the Bill of Statehood which admitted it the Union, from its status as the Republic of Texas.

It can be divided into 4 or 5 states. It will never happen as long as I am alive. Born and raised in Texas. "Don't mess with Texas."

Texas is a fairly cohesive state.
Now California or some other states might wish to divide.
