Am I Qualified widower if wife died in 2022 and I remarried on April 2023?

No.  Since you remarried than you will be filing the 2023 tax return as either Married Filing Jointly or Married Filing Separately.

No, you can't use the filing status Qualifying Surviving Spouse (formally Qualified Widow or Widower) because you remarried last year.  

 

For more information, refer to the IRS Filing Status - Qualifying Surviving Spouse.
