Short answer: No, can't declare war on yourself. Long answer: The whole purpose of the Civil War was for a new nation to be created, the Confederate States of America. If Lincoln had declared war on the CSA, then he would be recognizing that new nation...in effect the CSA just got what they wanted...a new nation (because President Lincoln just declared war on the Confederate States of America...therefore THEY EXIST AFTERALL!)
