Well, if someone is your spouse, you are already married to them, you can't marry them again, whether they are dead or alive. Mormons do believe that they can be 'sealed' to a deceased spouse. This means that if you were not 'sealed' in a temple ceremony while your husband or wife was alive, you can still be sealed to them in the temple ceremony after they have died. Being 'sealed' means that you will still be married in heaven.

Well.... Yes and no......

If a couple was already legally married they can be 'sealed' in the temple after death, to have them sealed "for all eternity." They were already married by a civil authority, this process simply ensures that their marriage will continue in heaven as it did on earth. In order for this to happen, living people simply stand in for them as proxy.

But.... other then that, no. Unless the couple was legally married previous to one (or both) of them dying, they cannot be sealed in the temple.

Can Mormons marry woman that aren't virgins?

Of course! The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (the "Mormon" church) does not tell people who they can and cannot marry. Marrying someone who is not a virgin happens quite often, especially in the case of marrying someone who has converted to the Church or marrying someone who is not a Mormon. Of course, it is also very common in the case of re-marriage after divorce or death of spouse. Mormons aren't perfect, and some life-long members may have made some chastity mistakes previously. This does not prevent them from marriage.

Can Mormons not date non-Mormons even if the girl is willing to convert when she marries and goes to stake dances and has a lot of Mormon friends?

Mormons can date whomever they want, but are encouraged to date other members of the church. Dating can lead to marriage, and Mormons believe that if you marry in the temple, you can be sealed to your spouse for eternity. However, both individuals must be members of the church in order to be sealed in the temple. If you are willing to convert, why wait until marriage? If you have a testimony, join the church now, and then you don't have to worry about not being able to date Mormons because you will be one. :)

Does the social security administration recognize marriages after 60 years old?

Generally speaking, the Social Security Administration will recognize a marriage at pretty much any age, even after age 60. But it must, of course, be a legally allowable marriage. However, keep in mind that when it comes to collecting widow or widower benefits from the earnings record of a deceased spouse, you must be unmarried prior to turning age 60. Thus, if your spouse dies and you re-marry before your 60th birthday, you cannot collect widow or widower benefits. But after you turn age 60 you can re-marry and still collect widow or widower benefits from your deceased spouse's record.
