Yes, but that stems more from the fact that the Republic of China (aka Taiwan) and the People’s Republic of China both lay claims to be the real China.
You can’t really declare independence from yourself.
Also the PRC would probably attack immediately if the ROC gave up their claim on being china.
Congressman Seth Moulton prposed to do this in May '23. Taiwan obviously wasn’t happy about that proposal.
Then there’s also a statement by former National Security Advisor Robert O’Brien from March '23 where he said that “I can’t imagine they’d be intact” after an invasion of China.
The 2nd one is a bit nebulous but doesn’t talk about reunification but about annexation.
