    Yes, I believe you can. I think they will try to make sure that the marriage is legitimate, though.

    Do we need anything else or as long we get married with a citizen in Brazil regardless how long and how well you know there, we can immediately become citizen there?

    Yes you can, after the marriage you need to apply for a permanente Visa first, for the citizenship you need to live in Brazil for at least one year.
