That's a question that is not easily generalized. Any lay person may take a vow of chastity. Married persons may take the vow of chastity, as permanent deacons do, where if the spouse dies, they may not remarry.
The Norbertine tertiaries may be married or single. Their web page is listed below.

What happened to Luther after he refused to retract his statement?
Martin Luther left his Religious Order (the Augustinians) without asking permission. He then proceeded to break all of his solemn lifelong vows that he had taken. He "married" an ex-nun (he had taken a lifelong vow of celibacy - not to get married). They moved into a house with a cellar full of good German beer, and Martin Luther proceeded to rewrite and otherwise mutilate the Sacred Scriptures. He then formed his very own religion on his own personal ideas of salvation, ignoring what Our Blessed Lord, and His Apostles had specifically taught. Subsequently, he was excommunicated from the Church for his intransigence, his heresy, his publicly and spectacularly breaking all of his vows.

When was a catholic priest able to marry?
Celibacy in the priesthood slowly evolved over the centuries. The first Apostles were mostly married men and in the early centuries married priests were the norm. About the fourth century (306 -335) celibacy was beginning to be introduced (however priests were not forbidden to marry), and most were married. In the eleventh century (1045) priests needed to be unmarried and remain celibate in order to be ordained. In the twelfth century (1013 and 1039) priestly marriages were decreed void, but at least 50% of priests were still married and remained married-their exact nature for celibacy was not known. During the 15th through 17th centuries the strictures to be celibate gain strength and slowly the priesthood transitions to an unmarried, celibate occupation. Even into the 20th century there are married catholic priests, those who convert from Anglican or Episcopal church, however, they are expected to remain celebate.

Could the Pope abolish the Celibacy Law Is this within the scope of practical doctrine that is mutable?
The short answer is "Yes". This is a matter of church law, not doctrine. The Pope on his own authority can change that law if he wished to. In fact, Pope John Paul II did that to allow married Anglican priests who have converted to be ordained as Catholic priests. It is important to note that the law could only be changed to allow men who were already married to become priests. Priests cannot marry once they have been ordained, nor can a married priest (or a deacon for that matter) remarry if his wife dies. As a matter of doctrine, the sacrament of Holy Orders imprints an "indelible character" on the soul that is automatically an impediment to marriage. This only applies to diocesan priests. Religious (members of an order) take vows of poverty, chastity, and obedience, and so can never be married. ---- The Eastern Catholic Churches, which also acknowledge the Pope as their leader, have married priests. It is only the Latin Rite in the west that follows the discipline of celibacy. In the East, however, bishops must be celibate. None of these are unchangeable rules, however.

Nothing except face the possible anger of their Catholic family.
