Replace greencard not delivered.

Replace greencard not delivered.

When my permanent green card was issued I was outside the U.S. and got divorced. My card was undeliverable because my old address has changed the mail number. I didn’t send my new address to the USCIS, so my card was sent back and destroyed after 60 days. Can I still have my green card be replaced? I’m still outside the U.S. but I have the I-797 notice of action that says my old green card was extended for more 18 months. Can I use that to re-enter the U.S. and then file to have my green card be replaced, even though I got divorced not my choice after it was issued?
