If you are both employee's who receive a W-2 for your wages then employee business expenses are not deductible on a federal tax return due to the tax code changes for tax years 2018 thru 2025.

No, not if you are W-2 employees. Job-related expenses are not deductible on your federal return if you are a W-2 employee.
