No. Tax law used to be that alimony was deductible by the payer. If your divorce was before the laws changed, you are grandfathered in . If you got divorced 2019 or later, then alimony is not deductible to you.
See IRS Topic No. 452 Alimony and Separate Maintenance for complete details.
If the payments were not alimony, your divorce decree would have to be pretty specific with what it is and tax consequences.
