The secession of the American colonies from the United Kingdom of Great Britain was successful.
That is an indication it can be done.
The secession of the Baltic states, Russia, et al. from the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics was both successful and remarkably peaceful. What relatively little violence did occur was much more a product of chaos and confusion than of any concerted effort by the Soviet state to forcibly prevent secession. If you had asked anyone even just a dozen years prior to those events whether such a thing was likely - or even merely possible - the answer would almost universally have been, "No! Of course not! There is no indication it can be done." And yet, it happened.
That is an indication it can be done.
