To achieve 4NF,it is possible that there may be M-way relationships that should be split into two or more binary relationships to avoid redundancy.

Yes, this statement is true. In 4NF, it is important to avoid multi-valued dependencies among non-key attributes in a relation. If there are M-way relationships (where M is greater than 2) that create such dependencies, it may be necessary to split them into two or more binary relationships to eliminate redundancy and achieve higher normalization.
