Am I able to propagate this succulent? If so should I put it in soil now?

Looks like the stem has a rotting issue. Cut off till you get clean stem. Let the stem callous over for a day or so. Then plant it into some moistened quality succulent soil. Add water next to the stem using a squirt bottle every few days or if the plant is looking dehydrated. Do not water the entire pot because there are no roots to absorb the moisture. I also recommend a small shallow terracotta pot. In a couple weeks there should be roots forming.
