If you want to take the exam under Texas, you'll have to apply to the Texas BON, pay their fees, send transcripts, etc. It might be better to take your NCLEX under Virginia and then endorse your license if you move. Both are compact states, so that should be easy. See this for details: Nurse Licensure Compact | NCSBN

You can physically take the exam while in Texas under your ATT from Virginia, too.
