No you cannot file for a divorce in AZ because Arizona does not recognize the legitimacy of your marriage. If you are a resident of California you can file for divorce there. What are the issues with real and personal property that need to be divided? You can give us a call at 462 1004 and ask Stephanie Coulter to make arrangements to chat with me.
