Yes, you can prepare your spouse’s return separately from yours, but you would have to indicate this when you start the return. Once you start preparing the returns together, you can’t change this.
If you have already started your return together with your spouse, you can still just enter your spouse’s information, and then come back and add your info before you both file.
