Brief Answer:
Yes

Detailed Answer:
Dear
I understand your concern and there is nothing wrong on scheduling a brain MRI even if there are no neurologic symptoms
MRI can be done as an outpatient, all patient who suffer from chronic illness do there examinations (MR) as outpatients
Anyway as there are no neurologic symptoms and doctor were sure about vertigo I don't think you will get anything from MRI
Hope your wife MRI result will be fine
Do t hesitate to contact me for further information
