No. She will not qualify for your insurance unless and until you are legally obligated to support and care for her. Otherwise she is not a dependent as that is defined in every insurance coverage I know of. An agreement with her parents, while possibly legally binding between you, is not binding on the insurance company. Only a general public duty to care for her will trigger the dependent status.
