Engaged while married
I am assuming that you and your wife are in the process of getting a divorce. Engagement just means that you plan to get married in the future and there is nothing in the law to prevent a married person from making plans for the future.
I wrote an article that might be of interest to you titled "New Love During Divorce" at JustDivorceBlog.com.

Yes she can be engaged, just not married.
