Can parents claim AOTC when paid with Coverdell funds as long as tuition amount taxed on child's return?

Yes, you can apply the Coverdell withdrawals to non-tuition (potentially making part of it taxable, but be sure to apply Coverdell to housing expenses), thereby allowing some tuition to be used for the American Opportunity Credit.
