If the property does not belong to the firm then the Bank would not grant loan to the Firm at the first place. But yes the partner can declare the property to be partnership property and the bank would definitely ask for proof on that regard.

He can mortgage the property and can avail the loan for the partnership firm in the name of the firm.

Only if that property is shown/treated to be the partnership firm, not otherwise.

Consent of other partner is necessary.

Partner can mortgage his personal property for availing loan to the partnership. If the property is not individual property but joint family property, it can not be mortgaged to obtain loans to the partnership firm unless all the joint owners join as guarantors to the proposed loan for the partnership.
