Yes, but they must be protected from frost during the first 3 years. There are mature banyan trees in Brownsville, Texas and there are two growing outdoors at Moody Gardens on Galveston Island.

Banyan trees have prop roots to provide extra support for their spreading branches. The prop roots grow from the branches and extend downwards to the ground, forming a strong network that helps the tree stay upright and stable. This unique adaptation allows banyan trees to grow to immense sizes and live for hundreds of years.
The banyan tree has large, glossy leaves that are dark green in color and oval in shape. It also produces aerial roots that grow downwards from its branches and can eventually reach the ground to form new trunks. Additionally, the tree produces small, fig-like fruits that are green when young and turn purplish-black when ripe.
Banyan tree has hanging roots. They help the tree to breathe easily.
Banyan tree seeds are found inside the small fig-like fruits of the tree. These fruits contain multiple seeds. They can be collected by harvesting the ripe fruits directly from a mature banyan tree and extracting the seeds from them.
