Yes, since she lived with you more than half the year.

Your daughter might qualify you for Head of Household status, if certain requirements are met.

 

See the TurboTax Help article What is a "qualifying person" for Head of Household? for more information.

Also make sure the other parent is not claiming her.  Only one person can claim a dependent.  You qualify to claim her but if she is claimed by her other parent, then you return will be rejected.
