When filing a Married Filing Joint (MFJ) return the IRS allows MFJ refunds to be direct deposited into accounts in your name, your spouse’s name or both (joint account).
However, rules vary by state and financial institution; to be sure, verify with your financial institution if they accept joint refunds into individual accounts.
