I travelled to US in 2007 and returned the same year through J1 visa.INA 212(e) applies.In the following link it has been stated that i can reenter US as visitor or other status.

"In addition, many people assume that the affected alien must return to his home country for two years immediately following the completion of the program, and may not set foot in the U.S. during those two years. In reality, the foreign residency requirement bars the alien, for a period of two years, solely from obtaining H (temporary worker), L (intracompany transferee), or permanent residence status in the U.S. The alien may return to his home country and reenter the U.S. in visitor, student or other status. "

In that case, can i apply for L2 visa ,dependent through my husband who would pursue L1.?
Please explain
