Actually, no. If Mary splattered, yes she could reform herself, and what's more any loose pieces would be drawn back to her. None of the tentacles take any kind of alternate form unless specifically willed to by either Mary or the Body; the default behavior would be to seek out Mary or her Lair as soon as possible, bypassing any other instincts. The Flesh is very monarchical in that way; while it could probably infect and/or consume hosts much faster if it spread out virus-like, it focuses instead on one host somewhat arbitrarily appointed as "the one".
