Yes she can. It costs about 50 pounds I think. Check the DVLA website.

Actually she might not even need to exchange her driving licence. The official direct.gov.uk website says:

European Community and European Economic Area
Licences issued in the European Community and European Economic Area make up two groups that are treated equally. The full list is:
Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Republic of Cyprus, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Romania, Portugal, Slovenia, Slovakia, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom.

Visitors
If you hold a valid community licence and are visiting GB, you can drive any vehicle if the full entitlement for that vehicle is shown on the licence.

Residents
A valid community licence issued on the strength of a driving test within the EC/EEA, will allow you to drive in GB for a set period. Alternatively, you can exchange your licence for a British licence.

Provided your licence remains valid you may drive in GB:

Car, motorcycle driving licence holders (ordinary driving licence):

* until aged 70 or for three years after becoming resident, whichever is the longer period

Lorry, minibus, bus driving licence holders (vocational driving licence):

* until aged 45 or for five years after becoming resident, whichever is the longer period
* if you are aged over 45 (but under 65) until your 66th birthday or for five years after becoming resident, whichever is the shorter period
* if you are aged 65 or over for 12 months after becoming resident

In order to continue driving after these periods, you must get a British driving licence.
