See you in the funny papers!
It will probably grow like a scallion(spring onion) for bit, then bloom instead of making a new edible bulb like the old one.
Plant it and they will come.

Yes you can , results will differ.
Best thing is check and see how many new onion the sprouting one is forming.
I have split them into up to three new onions.
They do best if not multiple new onions fighting each other for space.s
