If the prevoius mariage ended in divorce, the marriage may be vaild in the eyes of the state but it is invalid in the eyes of the church. The couple should see a priest and try to rectify the situation.

What is the procedure of blessing a civil ceremony wedding in the Catholic Church?

If you are both Catholic and neither was married before you can go to the parish priest and have the marriage validated. You will need to show marriage license and records of baptisms as Catholics. Then you will promise to raise any children as Catholic, and make a permanent commitment for marriage. The blessing ceremony will be the same as a wedding ceremony. You will not be "remarried' but now married with the vows of the Catholic faith

Can a catholic married to non-catholic in civil ceremony receive communion?

This is a difficult question to dissect. I think what you mean is that a Catholic gets married to a Non-Catholic in a Civil Ceremony and then sometime later wants to receive Communion. Any Catholic can receive Communion and should, as long as they are not aware of any mortal sin. In this situation, Catholics must be married in the Catholic Church or receive a dispensation to be married elsewhere. If this is not done, it is a grave offense (mortal sin) and a confession is required before going to Communion again.
