Nope, you would have to find an employer in Canada, who is able to obtain a Labour Market Opinion from HRSDC after advertising the position for 4 weeks and is unable to find a Canadian or Permanent Resident for the position.

Yes, as PMM already said you will need a LMO from an employer in Canada. You can't sponsor a brother or relative over the age of 18.
