Can I switch to my spouse’s insurance when I switch jobs?

My spouse is about to get a fulltime job with the pay and benefits thereof, including the option for health insurance. We get our insurance through my job, but I’m looking for a better job, and often companies won’t let you join their insurance until after a probationary period. COBRA is prohibitively expensive so could I switch to my wife’s company’s insurance to cover a possible gap in coverage when I quit my job to take a new one?

Edit: to clarify, my spouse is being promoted to fulltime, she will be able to join immediately.
