Tornadoes don't exactly split, but there are multiple vortex tornadoes. A multiple vortex tornado may appear to be composed of several smaller tornadoes but is still in fact one tornado.

The process by which this happens is not fully understood, but it begins when a downdraft is forced down the center of the tornado, widening it. If the tornado has the right ratio of rotational speed to vertical speed it can develop a multiple vortex structure.
