Not without going through the INS with all the required paperwork and fees... and expect it to take a lot of years.

You would have to be her sponsor... she's not a US citizen... and none of here birth paretns were... as she is only a step daughter.

You can file CR1/CR2 for both your spouse and step daughter at the same time if she is under 21 years of age. Waiting period will be the same for both, approx 10-12 months.
