You can notarize for a family member, but it is not a good practice to do so. If the notarized document goes to court, the opposing lawyer will use the notarization to call the document into question and possibly invalidate the document.
According to the American Society of Notaries a notary cannot proceed with notarization if he/she is a named party in the transaction, or if he/she will derive a financial or material benefit.
