Yes, but you may have to get permission from the court and trustee to assume additional debt.

You do not have to get the trustees approval until you initially want to make the actual purchase of the home. If you are just renting then approval is not needed by the trustee. Rent-to-own programs allow you to rent for a year or two before purchasing to ensure the fact that you can make monthly payments on time. A portion of the rent is set aside if indeed you do intend to make the purchase at the end of your lease. This is information given to me by my lawyer. I am currently in a chapter 13 and I will be renting to own very soon.
