Usually it's just her and I. There are some rides she cannot go on, so I've never been able to do them. But this time we will have another adult and 10 year old with us. I was wondering if the child swap works with a older disabled child.

It would most likely be a case by case kind of thing. But, if you and your friend each got a fasspass, one could ride while the other stays with your daughter and then switch.
 
Yes, you can. If she is not able to ride and cant wait alone, she would be handled like a younger child for child swap. Tell the CM that you need Rider Swap (the actual name) because she can't ride and needs someone to stay with her.

It might be easier to do as livndisney suggested though as much as possible since not all attractions do Rider Swap. It's mostly the more thrill type attractions with height restrictions. You may be able to do it as an accommodation for some others. That would be case by case.
When you are getting Fastpasses, use your daughter's park pass to get a Fastpass - the 10 year old can use hers to ride again with the 2nd adult.
 
I totally agree with Sue.

We do not do Fastpasses for this case because we found out the CM were so helpful otherwise. There are several my boys can not ride for different reasons. I usually go up and discuss it with the CM. Some will ask if I have a GAC, some do not. But we always take turns riding while spouse sits with kids.

While I do hate riding alone it is better then no ride. I usually ride and go through the FP line come out and DH goes. Never had an issue. But we also do not go when lines are backed up etc...
