Yes, as long as the buyer is willing to accept title subject to the lien, in other words, pay it off to clear the title, or accept the risk that nobody else will ever want to buy it with the lien.

Many people buy properties with liens, fully expecting to pay off the liens as part of the "price" of ownership, and the compensation to the seller is adjusted accordingly.

For example, I offered to buy a property in foreclosure and pay off the lien for timber taxes as part of the "deal." Buyer pays off the notes, seller pays off the tax liens, obtains clear title and an extra tax deduction.

What is title insurance for?

Title insurance protects you against hidden problems with the ownership of the property, i.e. if the seller doesn't have full rights to sell. It insures that there are no liens or mortgages left unsatisfied on the property. When a buyer purchases a property, title insurance protects them from any claims of ownership, lien, or mortgage placed on the property before the buyer takes title to the property. If the information upon which the title insurance is based is incorrect, and a claim is asserted against your ownership of the home, then the policy indemnifies or protects you from experiencing a financial loss directly attributable to a claim that is covered by the policy.

Does a general warranty deed that is alread transferred to grantor protect it from the previous owners creditors?

First, property is transferred by deed to the grantee. If the property is transferred to avoid creditors the creditors can still attach it through a court process. If there are already judgment liens, tax liens and mortgage liens recorded against the property then you would acquire it subject to those liens. They do not go away if you transfer the property to someone else.
