Depending on what exactly was wavied, there is a possibility to get a settlement. The best way to find out what is and is not possible is to contact an attorney; you can contact one I highly recommend

Normally I would say no.  If you waive that right, then you waived that right.  If he has an a lawyer that has any kind of sense, he will point out that exact part of the divorce decree that you will be trying to modify.  This is specifically true if he gave something so you would waive that right.  However I read not to long ago that a woman sued her ex-husband 27 years after divorce and in the divorce both parties waived rights to all past, present, and future alimony.  She won.
