Yes, you can legally marry and have a sexual relationship with your cousin. In some places you can, in others it is called incest and it is illegal; under this law you can't have sex, much less get married with anyone not once removed from you in your family. (First cousins, no, cousins-once-removed, yes.)

No. Your second marriage is not legal. In fact, in the United States a married person who knowingly marries again while still married to their first spouse commits bigamy. You need to obtain a legal divorce to dissolve your first marriage.
