Can either alone convey his or her interest to a third party?

Yes, but the purchaser will receive title to only an undivided one-half interest. The other one-half inter­est remains with the joint tenant who did not convey. If the property is the homestead of the couple, other restric­tions apply. Making such a conveyance destroys the joint tenancy and title is held as tenants in common.
