No, Your homeowners insurance is a type of "Hazard Insurance", you must continue to make your mortgage payments as usual.
If your policy contains "Loss of use" coverage, then your insurance will cover the cost of temporary housing within policy limits, allowing you to continue making your mortgage payments.

Do you have to have insurance on your home after you pay the loan off?
In the United States, there is no requirement to have house insurance. However, most banks and lending institutions require you to have insurance while there is an outstanding mortgage on the house. Once you have finished paying off the house, you don't have to maintain the insurance. However, it is a good idea to continue the insurance plan if you can afford it. Without insurance, if your house burns to the ground, you are left with no place to live and no money to purchase or rebuild.

Should the limits on a homeowners insurance policy be at least equal to the fair market value of the home being insured?
The dwelling coverage (coverage A) should equal the amount necessary to rebuild your house. Market value has nothing to do with it. However, if your house can be rebuilt for say, $150,000 and you have a $200,000 mortgage your mortgage company may require additional coverage beyond the estimated replacement cost. Remember the market value of your house also includes the dirt it sits on. There is no need to include the value of your dirt in the insurance policy unless required by the mortgage. Or due to a depressed market there might be a house that is only worth $65,000 on the market but would cost $125,000 to rebuild. This happens a lot in small rural communities.
