replanting Norfolk island pine offshoot

Can I cut an off shooting branch of Norfolk Island Pine Tree and plant separately as an individual tree? I have a well grown and established Norfolk Island Pine Tree and has beautifully grown to about 12 feet height. It has a small about 4-5 feet long offshoot branch arising from the very base. Can I cut it and plant it separately as another individual plant?

I would not try to divide the plant. They are quite sensitive and you would likely cause to much stress to the plant.
