Yes you can marry on a tourist visa while in Brazil, providing you meet the
local documentation requirements.
The US embassy in Brazil walks you through the process at
http://brazil.usembassy.gov/marriage-info.html
In addition, in Brazil each state has a lot of autonomy, so your fiancee should contact the local
marriage office where he lives and get specific instructions.
Once you marry, the following is how you obtain permission for your husband to
join you in the USA.
In order to bring your new husband to the USA and her to remain here permanently you must apply for a spousal visa. And he will have to wait in his home country while it is pending.
You must apply for a spouse visa for him. The spousal CR-1 visa gives him permission to come to the USA and stay here permanently.
Spouse visas take 12 to 16 months.
The CR-1 Spouse Visa Process is as follows:
First of all you have a real courtship and relationship followed by a legal marriage.
You are a US citizen.
You earn over $19,388.
You are able to 'prove' that you have a real, genuine, 'bone fide' relationship. You do this by presenting copies of correspondences, photos, letters, plane tickets, etc.
See: http://fianceevisaservices.com/genuine-relationshi...
Once married you apply for the visa, to USCIS Homeland Security. This is called
form I-130 Petition for Alien Relative.
Then about 5 to 6 months later USCIS approves.
Then Department of State's National Visa Center, NVC, will contact you for additional
application fees, and for you to submit to them a 'mini petition' with your spouses original documents.
Once NVC has completed their processing, about 4 to 8 months later, they pass the case to
the embassy nearest your spouse. Then your spouse is asked to attend an interview ( 3 to 5 months later) and the visa will be granted or denied.
If granted, he can begin her travel to the USA. His green card is already approved, he should get it in the mail a few months later.
Best of luck with your plans

The fact that you are the one doing this when he is a Brazilian citizen and should have much more knowledge about how to get the information should give you pause. Are you sure he isn't just using you as a possible way to get a visa to live in the US?
