I bet you can, as long as the buyer understands that "your interest" includes the honoring of the life estate. You can sell what's yours, and not what isn't, obviously.

My boyfriend died and is letting me live in his home. it is a life estate So my life estate has a value based on my age and value of this home. If the house is sold do I get the life estate value?

No. However, you continue with your life estate. Whoever purchases the home is essentially betting on you dying early because the house is sold subject to your life interest. You can convey your life interest to someone else if you want to make some money off of the property, but once again this interest would probably not capture alot--as they would be purchasing an interest in the property subject to the length that you live. After which the property reverts back to whomever your boyfriend assigned the remainder interest to.
