Yes, you can file a married filing joint federal return.
As far as the state returns, you will need to file several state returns as married filing separately and the filing requirement will depend upon the requirements of each state.
You can still file a joint return for New York as it sounds like you both worked and lived there during the same time period.
For Hawaii, the spouse who lives and works there for part of the year would need to file a state tax return as married filing separately if their Hawaii gross income reaches $3,344 per the instructions on page 4 here.
For California, the spouse living and working within the state will need to file a part-year return if they have income exceeding the applicable amount depending upon the number of dependents. Please see the section titled Filing requirements under this link for more details on the gross income amounts.
