Of course not. Slavery and freedom cannot coexist. No nation can be anywhere close to "free" as long a slavery is allowed within it's borders. Free citizens of any country that allows slavery are bound to it as surely as if they were in chains themselves.

Could the Nation continue being half slave and half free?

The idea of a nation being half slave and half free was increasingly seen as untenable by the mid-19th century.

Ultimately, the deep divisions over slavery made it clear that a compromise was impossible, propelling the nation toward a reckoning that would result in the abolition of slavery. Thus, the nation could not remain divided indefinitely without facing significant consequences.
