I'm pretty sure they could apply for a civil divorce under divorce under English rules; however, they could not remarry in the Catholic church without first requesting and bring granted an annulment. Unless it's part of English law there would be no requirement to wait 3 years.

Can a Catholic divorce if he became Anglican?

A Catholic can divorce and remain a Catholic as long as the person does not remarry. The Catholic Church does not recognize divorce so would consider the person as separated from the spouse. To remarry the person would have to obtain a Church annulment or the previous spouse would have to die. If the person remarries without an annulment, that person would be considered as an adulterer and could not receive the sacraments. The Anglican Church, as we have seen with Henry VIII's life, is much more liberal when it comes to divorce.
