No. Taiwan has no nuclear weapons, nor did they test one in 1964. Reagan actually got them to end their development program in 1982 (one of Reagan’s few tragic missteps imo).
China will invade Taiwan for the reason most brutal dictatorships go to war-their economy is cratering and Xi wants to keep power. In order to solidify the unbalanced (largely young male) population behind him, he will declare a crusade to “liberate” Taiwan from the West.

He will pick a war with India or Vietnam first
Secondly, they believe the RoC is part of China -- and the RoC believes that it is part of China.
Its possible Taiwan the Republic of China or ROC possesses its own nuclear weapons. They say they don’t. Oh CIA was recruited to dismantle ROC nuclear program. Really?
Back in the 1980's the ROC had its own nuclear weapons program which the U.S. said it sabotaged to improve relations with the communist China or People's Republic of China or PRC. Sometimes people are confused what is ROC and PRC. ROC is the Nationalists' China, PRC the communist China.
If Taiwan or ROC has developed nuclear weapons, they can hit every populated area in the eastern China.
It could be the case that the ROC developed nuclear weapons but has kept them a secret to avoid U.S. sanctions and to maintain the appearance of helpless to attract more American aid.
Could be, but this is entirely just me speculating. I don't know and no one but officials in the ROC government really knows. The U.S. and the PRC may think they know, but their knowledge is based on leaks, statements by the ROC, and the intelligence assessments.
