1. Not possible.
It will be treated void for a simple reason both spouse should have followed conversion i.e his (still) Hindu wife should also convert to Islam.
2. Without seeking divorce from his first wife who is still a Hindu even though he himself converted to Islam he cannot as per Law of the land legally marry second or more times.
