Yes, your wife's sister's husband can be a guarantor for your education loan if he meets the bank’s criteria.

Most lenders prefer close family but may accept extended relatives like in-laws if they:
- Have a stable, verifiable income
- Are within the typical age range (21 - 70 years)
- Maintain a good credit score (often 700+)
- Do not have excessive existing loan obligations

Policies vary by lender, so approval depends on their specific rules.
