Two families own a home together. Can both families claim the real estate taxes of $23167 and both qualify for the tax cap of $10000 each??

My daughter and I both own our home.  Our real estate taxes are $23167 for the year.  We both split the taxes.

Is it possible that we can both claim the amount on our individual 1040 forms and both be limited to the $10000 cap each?  The tax statement is in both our names with my SSN on it as primary.

Their accountant told them that this was legal.  I am using Turbo Tax as I have done for years and can't seem to get an answer.  I cannot even understand why the amount I am listing is not coming up as me having the 1098 form???
