Is there any way that the CSA could have ended up actually taking territory from the Yankees?
Were they that interested in taking territory?
I think they had their eye on NM and AZ at least.

They attempted to invade New Mexico, California, Colorado, Missouri, and Kentucky in OTL. Plus they tried to persuade much of northern Mexico to joing them.

They did not invade Colorodo or California.. where on earth did you get that? Just look at a map to see why marching an army from the South to either of those places is not practical. The Confederate New Mexico campign overextended that brigade horribly.
Oklahoma sent a non-voteing delegate to the Confedert Congress. That's often how terratories are represented.Perhaps the CAS's Arizona Territory, but little else; some of what eventually became Oklahoma perhaps.

So? There was also a Cordon (Indiana) campaign, but that doesn't mean that the Confederacy was seriously attempting to conquer Indiana.
