Unfortunately the answer is probably not. Even if you could you'd have the problem of collecting money from someone who does not want to pay. What you need to do is to contact the attorney who handled your side of the divorce and haul your ex into court.

I sincerely hope you used the services of a competent divorce attorney and did not do it yourself.
