If you never got legally divorced, then you are still married & can petition her.

If you are divorced, you can go abroad to marry her (again), return to the U.S. & petition her. Be forewarned that if she comes to the U.S. with the intention of (re)marrying you, it is considered "visa fraud".

I'm not sure how successful you would be with a "fiance visa" under the circumstances.
