can an employee in texas get two paychecks per pay period legally

The employee would like to separate their, say commissions from their regular pay (under one social security) between 2 paychecks. they then deposit each check into 2 separate bank accounts for personal reasons. Is separating the paychecks allowed in Texas? Employer still manually calculates the SUTA and FUTA, based on their wages combined. I want to make sure the employer is not doing anything wrong.
