I have this plant in a large 25 gallon container and it is putting up a lot of new shoots right now. Some are already about 7' tall and leafing out, others are just starting.

I'd like to divide this plant because it is outgrowing the container. Can I do it now? Or should I wait until the shoots are a little more mature? Or?

FWIW, I'm in Northern California, San Francisco mid-peninsula.

You should divide culms that are at maximum height, fully hardened, and fully leaved out, ie, probably 1+ year old. But I'm conservative in these matters.

Your best authority would be the supplier who probably is experienced in propagation by dividing to produce more inventory.
