Yes, as long as she is a qualifying child or qualifying relative.

Please read this TurboTax FAQ for additional information on "Who can I claim as my dependent?": Who can I claim as my dependent?

If she does qualify as your dependent, she can also file her own tax return, but be sure the she indicates that she can and is being claimed by someone else (within the program) as she/you are filling out her personal information.
