그녀는 항상 범상치 않고 싶었어요 is correct but it sounds more like "She always wanted to be out of the norm".
It sounds slightly odd because 범상하다 is an old fashioned word.
I think we are more likely to say:
- 그녀는 항상 (남과) 다르고 싶었어요. - "wanted to be different (from others)".
- 그녀는 항상 평범하지 않고 싶었어요. - 평범하다(ordinary, average) is more common than 범상하다.
- 그녀는 항상 평범을 벗어나고 싶었어요. - "wanted to get out of the norm" (more specific).
- 그녀는 항상 튀고 싶었어요. 튀다(jump out; be extraordinary) is a slangy term used in this sense a lot.
