If your marriage after your son turned 18, your husband cannot petition him as step-son. Immigrant petition through adoption has sepcial requirements and we are not sure your son is qualified.

We suggest you to consult with an immigration attorney.

Insufficient facts are provided to determine whether your son could derive citizenship from you, were you to become one. You could of course file on his behalf for permanent residence if he is not a citizen and he would qualify under 245(i) if he has been in the U.S. for years. If he turns 21 before getting permanent residence through you then he would have to remain single until getting the green card. This situation seems to have been mismanaged. Your first husband could have filed for him if you were married while your son was under 18.
