Is there any way that UAB, as a university, could secede from the University of Alabama system.

They would have to have approval of [drumroll...] the UA BOT...The whole thing is a farce.

To me the litmus test is pretty simple: If UAB were an independent school with its own BOT, would it be pulling the plug? I have to think not. That should tell us something, if not about power and corruption, then at the very least about incentives and conflicting interests.
