Is she your dependent?

Yes

Yes, you can claim your daughter as a dependent as long as she meets the qualifications for claiming a dependent. She has to indicate that someone else will claim her as a dependent. If she files her return with TurboTax, she should check the box "Someone else can claim me on their tax return" in the personal information section.

If she already filed without this indicator, and IRS accepted her tax return, you will not be able to e-file your return with her SSN on it as a dependent.  You will either have to print and mail your return or wait until your daughter amended her return and it will be accepted.
