Hello! I know the succulents can be propogated, but I’m wondering if any of these other ones can? If so, how do I do it?  
Thank you!

Calathea you are better off just removing the rooted leaves that you want to separate because they grow almost like straws coming out of the soil, and then branch out.  
I am actually not sure of any other way to do it that is more successful, maybe someone has another idea that you’d prefer.

Both calathea and prayer plant are usually propagated by dividing the roots, but it's possible to do cuttings if you have a node (you may have to get lucky on that.) If you find a node, you can root it in water or soil
