No, the Bible tells us that angels lack the ability of creation. They cannot reproduce, nor can demons who are just fallen angels who chose the wrong side.
Also, Jesus tells us that there is no marriage in Heaven, and He defined marriage and adultery for us as well, suffice to say that if there is no marriage in Heaven, there is no sex either.

It depends on the angel.
Some are created as entities seperate from/beyond human existence and understanding. They would be more akin to conscious solar systems or galaxies. As such, the concept of being 'married' would be quite foreign to them.
On the other hand, many angels were created as 'pairs'. Like any 'mated' pair, their being split was designed to help aid them in understanding the human/physical universe. An angel, who had never known the pangs of falling in love, being seperated, and then reuniting, would be of little use to a couple seeking to reconcile, for such an understanding would be 'beyond' them.
Some of these angels have actually 'fallen' to earth and become human, as well as their mate. Of course, once they are 'human' they are no longer 'angels', so one could quibble about whether or not they qualify, but that is a technicality reserved for someone else's discussion.
Likewise, humans can 'ascend' into being an 'angel' but, like with all job descriptions, it takes some doing to be 'authorized'. Because few records surive of such taking place, its difficult to understand what those requirements are but its safe to assume a deep love and respect for humanity is involved. After this, all sorts of crazy discussions can take place: what if one remains an angel and one becomes human, what does that make each? etc etc etc.
And since all life begins, essentially, in spirit form, a 'mated pair' of anything can create offspring on the spirit level, but as to what exactly is their designation (since spirit is essentially not bounded by names or limitations) is again subject to speculation.
What 'defines' being married is as much a social as it is a spiritual custom. One can be 'married' to another in any number of different senses without being 'legally' bound, and there are any number of 'legal' marriages that hold no more water than a bottomless boat. So the short answer is 'yes' but its definitely not a simple, straight-forward yes.

I'm thinking Angels are spiritual beings. Therefore, the concept of physical conception is not relevant. The idea of being united in matrimony as we understand it is not really logical.
What I do believe is, Angels in Heaven share a love for one another that is so passionate that is surpasses our romantic love. I don't think this is bound to individual relationships, but more rather in unison and all together. No a sexual relationship. Know that sex a impure physical requirement of our bodies to conceive. Spiritually speaking, we could love each other in the same way without ever touching . . . if we could only get past the selfish need for physical pleasure.
Of course, this isn't biblical or documented. Just a image I have conjured up based on my understanding of the existence of angels.

All angels are male and A sexual. There are no female angels.

If they got married, divorce would be possible. Religion would have to sweep that under the carpet. Without human bodies having children is impossible.

God's arrangement and purpose is for human race to fill the earth. Before the great flood, angels came down to earth and materialized as men and has intercourse with the women. This resulted to the Nephilims (giants) who are an abomination, and were wicked beings, reason why God sent the flood to remove wickedness.
Angels are spirit, they have different functions than humans.

No angels are special spirit beings - not humans - therefore have no human needs.
