Yes, anyone who is married by December 31 of any year can file a joint return and claim two personal exemptions. If a baby is born on December 31 they can be claimed for the entire year too.

As long as you're legally married by 12/31 you can file jointly, however, it would be to your benefit to calculate your return both jointly and separately.
