You may have written your comment as I edited mine. Use the 'Format' property of the datetime object to make it display as you want.
t = datetime(cellArr, 'Format', 'hh:mm:ss')

You also might want to consider using duration objects:
cellArr = {'6:25:48'
'7:28:18'
'8:30:20'
'9:32:37'
'10:35:40'};
temp = regexp(cellArr, ':', 'split');
durations = duration(str2double(vertcat(temp{:})));
low = hours(7);
high = hours(9);
durations(durations >= low & durations <= high)
