Does anyone know if it is possible to use photoshop brushes in illustrator? Or how I can get or if someone wants to share brushes that resemble the ones used in photoshop?

Thanks

Brush tips in Photoshop and Illustrator brushes work completely different. In Photoshop you are defining the shape of the brush tip which leaves a stroke of pixels. In Illustrator you are defining the image of the stroke (vector path) - in other words you
are defining what the stroke will look like after it's been laid down, rather than the shape of the tool used to make it.

You can however create custom art-brush strokes for use in Illustrator with Photoshop. There are probably several tutorials on this subject. I would suggest doing an internets search for 'creating + custom + brush + illustrator' or something like that.
