No she can't travel otherwise her application would be treated as withdrawn. However, if she still holding a valid visa which isn't subjected to be cancelled on travelling (which might happens where if someone is still holding the PBS dependant visa after the main sponsor has acquired ILR through long residence) then can cancel the application before biometrics.

Also there is a ban on travelling including overseas journey but if that is related to medical treatment then most likely wouldn't be intervened.
