Yes. You will need to file a NC return (as a nonresident) because she earned income in NC. TurboTax will handle this situation easily; it is quite common. You will both leave TX as your resident state in the My Info section. Then, at the bottom of that screen, you will answer YES to the did you make money in any other states question and enter NC. This will trigger the non-resident return. When you get to the state return, you will only provide information regarding her wages there. @spencerj
