If their DLA includes either mid/high rate care then yes both of you will be able to claim carers element each.

I’m assuming you’re claiming Tax credits as well and that’s the reason for your migration.
Are either of you claiming carers allowance? If so then that will be deducted in full from any UC entitlement.
