Not it's not!

Your marriage won't be recognised under British law as your partner wasn't divorced (with a divorce decree absolute) when the second marriage ceremony took place. In the circumstances, a Spouse Settlement visa application will be refused.

The previous advice for other members who have found themselves in this situation, is to apply for a fiance visa and marry in the UK.
