Hello! I am unable to test this out, or I wouldn’t be asking it, but if register B equaled hexidecimal $FF, and register C equaled $FF, would register BC equal $FFFF? Some how I need to emulate this in BASIC....
Yes. And to be clear, B is the high byte and C is the low byte. So if you instead had distinguishable values like B = $12 and C = $34, then BC = $1234.

Be careful if you're on the TI 84+ CE though; in eZ80 (and ADL mode), BC is actually 24 bits, with the upper byte stored in the register BCU (which is not usable on its own) so BC would actually be $XXFFFF, where XX is based on what was last loaded into BC
