Generally yes. Property insurance policies are generally non-transferrable so the buyer of your property will obtain insurance if desired or if required (assuming your buyer obtains a purchase money mortgage).
Be sure to consult with a real estate attorney through the listing process, contract preparation and especially closing.
I would be pleased to consult with you about the sale of your home.
