    You can try but you won't get far. Dumb idea. Amend the Plan to surrender the home or convert to a 7 and walk away (assuming you qualify for the 7 and there is no other reason to be in the 13). Complete waste of time to attempt a short sale. Only one who benefits (assuming your are successful - probably not) is the realtor.
