Absolutely not.
Snapping turtles are aggressive, even to their own kind and should be housed singularly.

Sounds like she may learn the hard way then, when the Map gets eaten!
If she won't believe you, just point her in the direction of this Snapper caresheet Care Sheet - Common Snapping Turtle, and get her to read the bit about Community Habitat.
