No, a divorce may not be annulled marriages may be annulled, not divorces. Once a divorce is finalized, the way to be married again is get re-married. Re-marrying will not change the fact that there was a period of time, in between the first and second marriages, during which you were not married, which could affect various things, like taxes and health care benefits.
