Would it be the same in these sentences too? I don't know where my daughter is.

I don't know where is my daughter.

Are both also acceptable? I think the first one is more correct.

Thanks

The first one is correct. The second one is not.

Did you notice the comma that JohnParis added to your original pairing?
