Prior to becoming a state Texas was an independent nation. An agreement between two or more independent nations is a treaty. Under international law any party to a treaty can nullify/withdraw from that treaty. So yes Texas, under international law recognized by the USA, can secede.

The thirteen original colonies might be able to make a similar but much less convincing argument.

When Texas joined the US it gave up any and all claims to independence. It is a State within the United States. No more, no less. Equal to all the others and bound by the same laws which establish our Republic.
