Legal Question in Family Law in Arizona

I am ready to settle my divorce proceeding and I have a question before I move forward on the case. my wife owns a rental property which is her sole and seperate property. well we were married the rental was vacant for 4 months and the mortgage was paid using are comunnity checking account. as it has been even when we lived in it before we bought a new home and put her property up for rent. Can I seek half the mortgage payments back made to her mortgage company using are community bank funds for the 4 months that the house was vacant with no renters. Bank records do reflect the mortgage payments made.

I believe that is a valid request, in that community funds were spent on separate property.
