Must & should in continuous form?

I know that "must in continuous form" can be used for deduction & "should in continuous form" can also be used for expectation in the meaning of present continuous tense, but I don't know if they can be used for deduction & expectation in the meaning of simple present tense. I mean, for example, if I think one of my friends cleans her own room every weekend, can I say

- "she must be cleaning her room every weekend" for deduction &

- "she should be cleaning her room every weekend" for expectation?

Thank you.
