Yes, both of you can deduct property taxes, but not the same amount. You should divide your expenses based on who paid them; if they are deducted form a joint account, divide them evenly.
The only rule for Married Filing Separately not in a community property state is
that if one spouse itemizes the other has to itemize also and the total of
their itemized deductions cannot exceed what they actually paid. So, if you are
not in a community property state, you may elect to split the deductions any
way you would like, 50/50, 75/25, just not 100/100.

Note: Unless you have a specific reason for filing separately, joint filing gives you a bigger refund or less taxes due. Please refer to Is
it better for a married couple to file jointly or separately? for details.
