Probably, give me a call 972 839 4495 as it needs to be clear before I answer.
From what you said, the sisters should not have an interest in the house and would have no reason to sign or be involved. You may probably be able to handle this with affidavits of heirship from 2 disinterested parties. Go to your local title company and they should be able to help you with all of the paperwork you need.
