You cannot get the benefit. For claiming the benefits one must be;

A Co-owner of the Property (+) Co-Borrower of Loan. Only if these 2 conditions satisfied then you could get the benefit of Principal Payment and Interest amount payment.

as said by Mr. nitesh, if you satisfy the both conditions, then you are eligible to claim 80c and 24(b) deductions
