Are there any species where if you cut one in two, each would grow back to a full one? Would that give them immortality?

Theoretically yes, but as they’re such low life forms they’re more likely to get eaten.
@gollum,
planaria were used to demonstrate partitioning .. You could spliet em in half and youd have two new individuals.
