Is real brother of a student be granted/allowed spouse Visa? Will he be allowed to work on spouse Visa in Canada? My brother is going for his studies in Canada in Jan 2021 intake. Can I also Apply for spouse/dependent Visa?

No, you can't be the spouse of your real brother.

Unless your brother adopted you and covers all your expenses, you're also not your brother's dependent.

Obviously people can't take parents as a spouse. The parents would have applied separately for TRVs.

You can't marry your mother or father either. Please do understand that the definition of spouse is someone who you marry (or live with in a common-law marriage)
