Can you digitally focus stack with one photo?
No and no, unfortunately. Well, you can take a few handheld shots while refocusing but the processing software will get confused in the PP, because all frames will be somewhat different. Plus, not only you need a tripod, you would also need a focusing rail.

And no, you will need at least two shots to get the software help on this. This is one of the most challenging tasks in live macro, since the DOF is so shallow even at small apertures.
