you can answer this question yourself.
have a look at the file src/group.cpp
you'll find a line:
#define MAX_GROUP 32
you have three guesses what happens if you
change the 32 to something else and recompile...

No, groups are limited to 32. The masks for them are stored
in a 32-bit int. Changing that would be non-trivial.
Often, there are other ways to do the thing you want without groups, e.g.
by molecule ID, where there is no limitation.

Hi Steve,
I think it would be useful to add an “ungroup” command
to deregister an obsolete group. This may be helpfull in
certain circumstances.

This would be possible, but non-trivial to implement.
Also, it might break some commands which check for
the group initially, but not later when it could have
disappeared.
