So can an mp3 file have 'tracks' within it ?


No.


Actually, perhaps I should've been a bit clearer here. An MP3 file
could have multiple 'songs' in it but there'd be no 'digital
divider' (for want of a better phrase) to identify them as individual
tracks - each would just flow one to another (with possibly some
silence between them depending on the source). Hence, to skip to the
next song would require you to 'fast forward' until you reached the
correct point in time.
