There is no self help in NJ by Landlords for residential property. So in order to evict you, he must comply strictly to the statutory requirements for eviction. If he does so, you will be able to present your side of the story to the Judge.
The property is in the Bronx and I am one of two joint tenants with 50% ownership each.

If it’s only me signing the purchase agreement as the buyer and I also only sign the deed, does he automatically get added to the deed due to marriage?

The first issue is that you failed to indicate in which NJ county the property is located. The best solution would be to retain the services of a local attorney who has estate and landlord - tenant experience as there may be other choices in addition to ejectment such as a partition action.
