I belive if the child or children are 18 or older then no you can not receive child support. The age limit to which child support funds can be issued to the payee is 18 years of age after that no further child support can/ will be given by law HOWEVER you might want to look into the laws in your state about something called "back child support" wherein the mother or father must pay you for each month that child support was not given but the child must not be over 18 if so it's a lost cause but if you would like better advice try consulting a lawyer he/she can give you the true 411 on this matter.
