Like most trees (we had this conversation 
) ponytail palms can be bonsai'd. (Is that a verb? I made it up)
Here's a picture of a ponytail palm bonsai:

This is from a vendor selling them who says:
Ponytail Palms are perfect indoor bonsai tree. They are extreeeemly easy to maintain. They live to a ripe old age with minimal care and have a true tropical feel. (course that's part of the sales pitch you understand )
Whether you want to do that to yours is a whole separate question and one I can't answer.
