If a girl is married with the consent of her parents at the age of 17 can she later seek a divorce proving that at the time of marriage she was a minor and hence it was without her consent?

If you're in the US, no, she couldn't get a divorce on these grounds unless she can convince the court that her parents forced her to get married (in which case you'd probably be dealing with an annulment instead of a divorce). She can still get a divorce, just not on those grounds. She could, for example, file on the grounds of irreconcilable differences.
