Yes, if it is a registered agreement. If they do not agree to execute the sale deed, file a case in court on the basis of the sale agreement.

The legal heirs are bound to honor the sale agreement on behalf of the deceased owner of the property.
If they do not cooperate then the buyer can approach court with a suit for specific performance of contract to enforce the sale agreement.
