Yes a mother can. Once in prison he loses the majority of his rights including that one and the right to sign consent for a divorce. My mother did it with my sister and myself when our father went to prison. Only showed up to the prison to give him a copy of the paperwork. ---- I don't want to rain on your parade, but it's a little more complicated then that. You should consult a family law attorney.

Full parental rights can only be terminated in two ways, both are done through court procedures. Either or both parents can file a Voluntary Termination of Parental Rights petition in state court in the city or county where they reside. The judge reviews the petition and sets a hearing date for the action. Whether or not full termination of rights is granted (meaning financial obligations as well as physical caregiving) is based upon what is in the best interest of the child.
