No. Whatever obligations the person had before marriage, does not carry over into the marriage. Even if the couple reside in a community property state, the assets of the new spouse does not play a part in any "old debts".

What can you do if divorce judgment indemnifies you from mortgage and credit card debt but companies refuse to recognize Superior court order?

A shaky issue. Likely as not, you are on the contract for these debts with your exspouse. The court that granted your divorce separated you from the debt, and only the courts can legally break a contract when both parties do not agree to it. You have the recourse to appear in court if the creditors attempt to sue you and produce the order from the divorce court indemnifying you. Likely as not the presiding judge will honor the order from the divorce judge, and the creditors will have no option at that point but to pursue your exspouse. Be prepared to cooperate with the court if the judge requests any location or asset information on your exspouse from you. This can only help your case.
