I seriously doubt that they will be stuck together very much but if so, let the parts where you pulled them apart dry before re-planting to prevent fungal infection.

Ideally they should be divided when dormant but since you have them growing outside year round I would divide them now if it were me.

I have grown lots of amaryllis outside and never killed one except the ones I didn't dig up in the fall and they froze. They are not that delicate to dig up if you don't damage them with the shovel.

They sell boxed amaryllis around here for blooming at Christmas and the bulbs look exactly like the ones in your picture with just a little bit of growth showing. They come in a box with a plastic pot and some soil and people pot them to bloom around Christmas. Having a little bit of growth like that will not hurt a thing but I wouldn't wait. Dig out a big shovelful of dirt and they will probably fall apart. Re-plant but leave the crown of the bulb exposed.
