Possibly.. you will have to contact the servicer of the HELOC lender and ask them to see if it's possible.. When it comes to HELOC's, there are no "Conforming" set of guidelines.. every lender who does them can have their own set of rules.. so where one might allow it, another lender might not.. ..

I think William Acres answered your question pretty well. I would add you should have an excellent chance with many lenders since the mortgage is your name. They obviously want to maintain 2nd lien on the property but if you are the only one on title now, make that known that via divorce you have acquired the property in your name only. If they will not allow the HELOC to be transferred into your name only, then I would seek out a credit union or a large bank to redo the heloc in your name.
