An elephant, just like all quadruped animals, have only two knees. The knees on animals are located on the hind legs just like humans, which are often referred to as the stifle joint.

The joint on the front legs of any four-legged herbivore, such as horses, cows, elephants, deer, sheep and goats that resemble our own knees (and are often informally labeled as such) is actually called the carpus - the cluster of bones that form the wrist.
