Yes it could. It is quite normal that the bank made you sign a document saying that the repayment of the loan originally given to you was protected with the mortgage on the property but also with your personal guaranty, meaning you could be forced to pay the due instalments if the bank chooses to claim these from you instead of repossessing the property, or even in case where the repossession does not cover the debt outstanding.
