Yes, if you can prove that they were U.S. residents in 2006 and 2007.

As I told you before, they just got resident status on 2008, but they came like tourist in 2006, and 2007 and they stayed 2 months each year

Then you CANNOT claim them as dependents for tax years 2006 and 2007, because, to e claimed as dependents on your U.S. tax return, your parents MUST be residents of the U.S.

Two months per year for two years is NOT enough time to establish residency.
