What can happen if I forgive my felon husband and get back to him with my son even he was convicted of domestic violence against me and our son?

Your question requires an attorney consultation. It is not a simple question that can be answered on this type of forum. There are many factors that would need to be considered and evaluated. The fact that your husband was convicted of domestic violence against you and your son, could prevent him from filing a petition on your behalf.

What are the implications of marrying a Brazilian citizen who is still waiting for his permanent residency here in the United States?

It is not illegal for you to marry, but it may entail quite a lengthy process for him to secure a green card. In my practice I consult many clients with similar questions. You should schedule an appointment with a trusted attorney versed in immigration law before marrying and explore his visa paths. His current status is unclear from your question and so would need to be explored further. If he does not receive his green card via his mother then he would have to exit, marry, then re-enter U.S. based on a marriage visa.

He will most likely need a waiver for his overstay. I strongly suggest that you contact an experienced immigration for a face-to-face consultation and give him/her all of the facts surrounding your boyfriend's situation. (S)he would then be in a better position to analyze his case, advise him of his options and, if possible, make sure that the necessary paperwork and documentation is properly presented so as not to delay the process.
