No.  You are not a first-time homebuyer.  To be a first-time homebuyer, neither you nor your spouse is permitted to have had an ownership interest in a main home in the 2-year period ending on the date of the acquisition of the new home.  Since your wife presently has an ownership interest in a main home, neither of you qualifies as a first-time homebuyer.
