My wife and I have formed an S Corporation and are running a business. If we were to get a divorce, can I buy her shares of the S Corporation and assume all debt within the S corporation before the divorce is final?

Sure, unless the debt is personally guaranteed by your wife, in which case you'll need permission from the creditors to take over your wife's debt.
