would I be able to file a new claim on January 13, 2012?

You certainly can file a new claim on January 13, 2013.
As a matter of fact, if EUC is extended into February,
you will need to
call NJ, speak to a representative in order to recertify your claim. NJ will then file a new claim for you as part of the recertification process.
However,
unless you have worked between 1/15/12-1/12/13 and earned enough to qualify for a new claim, your application for a new claim will be denied.
In that event,
if the legislation still permits, NJ will continue your EUC Tier 2 benefits, which you should begin sometime in December.
If Congress does not extend the legislation in December, of course, all EUC benefit payments end with week ending 12/29/12.
If you have not worked, you do not qualify for a new claim, either.
