Can I deduct part time mba expenses as part of Un-reimbursed Employee Expenses and Lifetime Learning credit simultaneously

I am studying in a part time MBA program while working Full time paying around 20K in tuition and 3k in other expenses and fees. I understand that I can deduct the 20K expenses as part of Unreimbursed Employee expenses (form 2106-EZ) in my itemized deduction . Can the same expense be applied towards Lifetime Learning Credit ($2000 tax refund) . As I noted, the Lifetime learning credit does not care about the Exact amount . Rather it can be applied once any money is spent towards higher degree. Please advise
