Yes, with the exception of property owned as tenants by the entirety. The right to transfer an interest in property owned as a T by E varies in different jurisdictions and may create a complicated situation for the buyer where an interest can be transferred.
The idea of 'undivided' here means that each co-owner has the right to the use and possession of the whole property. That right to the use and possession of the whole property is what we call an undivided interest. If three sisters purchase a beach house together then each has the right to the use and possession of the property.

If the property is held as tenants by the entirety you should consult with an attorney in your jurisdiction to determine the consequences and whether a TBE can convey their interest. Deeds should always be drafted by a professional. Errors made by non-professionals can be costly to correct if they can be corrected.

If a person has an active real estate license, they also have a broker. Having a real estate license without placing it with a brokerage means the license is inactive.

Can a person own a property without any undivided share of land?
No. When more than one person owns land they each own an undivided interest. That means they each have the right to the use and possession of the whole property even though they own a half interest. A sole owner would, of course, have the right to the use and possession of the property. They would acquire their interest by deed or by inheritance. Property ownership is by definition the right to the use and possession, and the right to leave the land to your heirs. If you do not have a will the property will pass to your heirs-at-law according to law. A person cannot own real property unless they have acquired an interest by deed or inheritance.
