If you cut off individual bamboo shoots, yes, they will dry out to make canes like you'd buy in garden centre. I used to have a bamboo clump in the garden and it generated lots of canes. I never tried propagating it by planting shoots though - it eventually started sending runners out all over place so I got rid of it!

Yes, basal cuttings are the way to go with bamboo, select material that has already produced roots, often from underground creeping stems.
