She still has the right to own a firearm, with or without the CCW. However, it's going to be her responsibility to ensure that her husband cannot access it in any way.
Another View: NO! Not unless she wants to be the instrument of him being sent to prison.
While the CCW-possessing wife may have every right to CARRY a firearm, because of the felon status of her husband, she CANNOT keep or store the weapon ANYWHERE (residence, vehicle, etc) where he COULD conceivably have access to it. Additionally, she may not carry it on her person anytime she is accompanied by her husband.
Such a violation, for him, is known as CONCURRENT POSSESSION (e.g.: although he may not physically have it on his person, it is close enough for him to gain access to, or exercise control over, it).
