Unless both spouses are Mexican nationals, a court in the United States (including a Court in Arizona) will not recognize the validity of a Divorce Decree issued by a foreign country, including Mexico. There are, however, some limited circumstances under which an Arizona court may enforce a foreign Court's Order under the common law concept of "Comity." Without more information, it is more likely than not that a Mexican divorce is not legal in Arizona.
