No. The hard bones are more likely to form a fossil. The soft parts will degenerate over time. This is why most of the fossils from the Pre-Cambrian and Cambrian periods are mostly shells, not the actual animals that inhabited them.

Why don't all organisms become fossils?

Really, anything can be fosslized. It really all depends on where it died. if it died in a lake and the lake dried and a layed of ground eroded over it than it would become fossleized by the nutrients found in that layer of ground. Like I said, depens on where it died, all that the location needs to be is a place where nutrient rich soil can preserve the bones. It just may seem like only certain organisms can be fosslized because they are all found those areas with preserving soil.
