Can a lien be put against a life insurance policy when the beneficiary owes you money?

Not with a properly named beneficiary.
If the beneficiary is the owner can the life insurance policy be attached by a lien?
If the person is deceased than you now have the money. I guess it depends on what entity is putting a lien on. Certainly the IRS can do anything they wish. I don't think any other entity can put a lien on the money any more than they could your 401K or Savings account. If you are truly concerned you should check with your lawyer.

Beneficiary
Does insurance money need to go to estate when deceased?
No, the insurance money goes to the beneficiary named in the policy. If the beneficiary is not named, or the estate is named, it will go into probate.

No. That money belongs to the beneficiary of the policy.
What happens if someone dies and has no beneficiary on his life insurance policy?
In that case, the money will be kept deposited with the insurance company as unclaimed amount. In absence of the beneficiary, the insurance company can pay the money to the legal heir of the policy holder, but that has to be sufficiently proved in the Court of Law.
Does the person who is named Beneficiary on a Life Insurance Policy have to split the money if they are sole beneficiary on the Life Insurance Policy however in the Will states that assets be divided?
If the insured has died the proceeds from the insurance will be paid AS STATED IN THE POLICY. The proceeds of the claim are not part of the assets of the deceased's estate.
Is there a clause in a life insurance policy that pays for a home if the owner dies?
It would be possible to write an insurance policy that way if you wanted to, however, normally a life insurance policy pays a fixed amount of money (known as the death benefit) to a chosen beneficiary. If the beneficiary then wished to use that money to pay for a home, that could be done.

A will does not normally change a life insurance policy. The policy is a contract between the insured to pay a beneficiary. If the policy leaves the money to the estate, the will then controls the dispensation.
