I'm not sure exactly what you're asking...do you mean, can you trim and
plant the trimmed off tops, leaving the bottom of the plant in the gravel?
If so, the answer is yes - the bottoms will sprout new tops, and the tops
will grow roots and continue to grow from the top as well.

  Speaking of trimming, Can I trim in the middle and replant both halves?
If
  possible, Can I trim to a little below the desired hieght and replant the
  cutting without removing from the gravel?  (the molly tank has a few that
  have doubled in size in a little over two weeks and the fish usually stay
on
  the opposite side of the tank when I'm doing maint. (cleaning, etc))

  I use a combination of the top trimming and replanting the bottoms,
  depending. I find that after several times of just trimming the tops (how
  many depends on the type of plant) the bottoms tend to lose their leaves
and
  look bad. When that happens, I cut off the bottoms & replant the tops. I
  think that the article about Amano's trimming methods mentioned doing this
  as well.
