The only people who can rule in or rule out DID are licensed experts in dissociative disorders. If your friend hasn't been tested for it appropriately, it's possible that she doesn't really know what's going on with herself.
The important thing, like a poster already said is not so much is she lying, but is this a safe relationship (emotionally, physically, psychologically) for you and your daughter. If you are questioning this friends stability and whether she is a healthy person for you to be around, then maybe you should think about making a safety plan and getting you and your child out of harms way.
You can still be there for her and encourage her to get help/treatment for what she is experiencing, but at the same time put you and your daughter first and make sure you are in a healthy and safe environment.
It's unfortunate, but it's rather easy to say "I have DID" and spin some tales about why, when really it's just a manipulative way to reach out for attention and keep people walking on eggshells.
The only way to know is for her to be evaluated by an expert, but she would have to be amenable to this.
Take care
