Yes. If there is a deficit in amount owed and what the vehicle is sold for, the borrower can be sued for any outstanding loan balance plus legal fees and other charges. Only the terms of the lending contract is relevant, not the issue of whether or not the borrower informed the lender that they were unable to meet the financial obligation.

Can you repo a car if you signed the loan but your ex-spouse is the only name on the registration and she is not making the payments?

You CANT legally. She could report it STOLEN if you did. Best thing to do is contact the LENDER and assure them that YOU will make the payments IF they will repo it. AND get the registration out of her name. They can do that AFTER repo. Good Luck and MERRY CHRISTMAS.
