No, you can't. The law presumes (that is, requires) that you read and understand all contracts, which includes insurance policies, before you sign them. Once you sign them, you are held to what you signed. So when you received the policy, you were obligated to review it; at that time, you either should have refused to sign and asked them to correct it, removing your daugher; of if you did sign, you are are held to have agreed to her inclusion on the policy.
