There are 2 definition of "full" in the context.
If you are talking about creating, deleting, or re-sizing partitions, then a full disk means the all the space is assigned to partitions. Think of it as a large land parcel being subdivided.
"Full" within a partition means there is no more room to store data. Of course, if a partition is full, then it cannot be re-sized down to make room on the disk.
In principle, as long as any partition has empty space, then you can move things around to make other partitions bigger--or to create more. In practice, it depends on the exact configuration.
