In many states, yes, but there's a drawback. If she really does know who the father is, she can still stop the support against the stepfather, as any time, than file for retroactive child support against the bio dad. This has been turning up in a number of paternity fraud cases of late.
Your husband has no rights over the child because he did not help in the creation of the child, but he can legally adopt her.
You are legally her aunt through marriage.
Don't do it get a license so you can make it official
Marriage by itself does not bring custody rights to non-biological children. Where the children go when the biological mother dies depends on who has custody, whether the non-biological father has adopted the child, whether the biological father wants the child, and on the laws of the state where all of this is happening.
Not if he is still legally married to you.
Your husband is a polygamist. I would suggest that you see a lawyer and go from there.
Yes. If the marriage license was legally obtained and the ceremony legally performed the couple are considered married from the moment they are pronounced "husband and wife".

If you are a bigamist and your first, and legal, husband died then you should arrange to marry your present "husband". Until you do you are not legally married since your "marriage" to him was invalid due to your own marital status.
If the first marriage was never legally terminated (though divorce or annulment), the first marriage is still valid and the second marriage is invalid.
divorce him, legally the marriage was illegal since his name was fake its like you were never married
Your husband cannot get joint custody of your children from a prior marriage. Custody arrangements are made between parents of children. Your present husband can legally adopt your children with their father's consent. He would then have all the legal rights and obligations of a biological father. The children would become his legal heirs-at-law.
