Now my Question is will my second husband can adopt the kid? or without adopting ,his name will come in school and other documents like passport etc? Please advice. Thanks in advance

the written consent of natural father is required for change of name of the kid in school records. the kid cannot be adopted by present husband as the father is still alive. a mother using her name only in the school records is acceptable and legal.
There is another way to overcome this problem.
Anupma, the biological father will be entitled all his rights, including "shared custody" unless he consents for child being adopted by your second husband.
