Can my 24 year old claim herself on her taxes

As long as no one else can claim her as a dependent on their return, she can get the personal exemption for herself on her return.  She should not enter herself as a dependent.  Simply by entering her name, SSN and other personal information and NOT marking the box that asks whether someone else can claim her, TT will give her a personal exemption for herself.
