You might be if it's a second or a third. It should be easy enough to bankrupt it though.
Mortgage companies generally have a team of top lawyers, so you may need one too.

Bankruptcy discharge of a signer's liability does not relieve the co-signer's obligation.
Certain protections apply to a non-filing spouse pursuant to 11 USC 524.
