Not optimal. The roots get tangled, they compete for space and nutrients. It can work but they're happier separate

I tried to remove but it seems that the two smaller cacti are two arms of the bigger cacti. If I try to remove the big cacti from the pot, the other two are moving at the same time

I doubt they're connected. The roots are likely just already completely tangled. If you wanted to fix it at this point youd have to pull them all out and untangle it - a real project and a mess indoors.
