The debt was $10 million in 1845, worth $410 million today. If Texas pays $410 million to fed govt, can we secede? (We have $32.7 billion budget surplus)

And get the portions of New Mexico, Oklahoma, Kansas, Colorado, and Wyoming that Texas relinquished claims to in exchange for the US assuming that debt?
