CAN they...?

Anything is possible.

The facts, admissible evidence, defenses, motions, and evidence rulings will determine the outcome at trial. No one can speculate with no knowledge of any of that.

Forgery is when someone signs someone else's name without their permission or consent. If someone signed their own name, but claimed that they owned property that they did not own, that is fraud, for which you have both civil and criminal remedies.
