No you cannot .the lady have to obtain divorce either by husband or through court.if husband refuses to give divorce she can file a divorce petition in court on grounds of harassment, I'll behaviour etc It would take 3-6 months. If you married a women before divorce from first husband it is void. He have right to book you understand criminal offence.moreover what about the minor because custody is major issues who should have.this will be complicated if you marry.let her obtain divorce first .I require your details to look into matter
