Of course. If she has physical custody and your child is still your child then you must pay child support until your child support order has been modified by the court. A new spouse is not respondible for supporting non-biological children.

Child support is not based upon the reluctance of a parent(s) to refuse to be gainfully employed, the non custodial obligated parent is required to pay support for the child regardless of the circumstances . In joint custody one parent is the primary custodian, meaning the one with whom the child resides the majority of time (such as school terms). The court cannot force the primary custodial parent to seek employment simply because the obligated parent wishes to be relieved of his or her financial responsibility to the child.

You would need to go back to court and seek to have the order modified.
