Yes, but make sure when she files her return that she indicates that she will be claimed as a dependent on another tax return.  TurboTax will ask whether she can be claimed as a dependent and whether she is being claimed as a dependent in the Personal Info section.  Its important to answer those questions or your return could be rejected when you attempt to claim her.
