I live in the state of Alabama. My spouse and I file Married filing separately. We plan to use standard deduction for federal. It looks like for state, itemize we would be better for us. Can we both take the standard deduction for federal and itemize for state?

Yes, if you claimed the Standard Deduction on your federal return, you can still itemize your deductions on the Alabama return.
