Why would the brake lights on a 96 Altima not stay on when the headlights are on and only work when using the brakes?

??? Your brakelights are only supposed to come on when using the brakes. Do you mean that your TAIL LIGHTS don't work?

One for the tail light and one for the brake light. The brake light part is still connected but the one for the tail light is broken. All of this is inside the bulb. Happens all the time.

If your brake lights work but not the tail lights and its not the fuse?

Have you checked your bulbs ? The tail light / brake light bulb has 2 wires inside it In my case I have had to change each bulb because the brake light portion did not work but the tail light portion of the bulb did ( I'm assuming that your front park lights are working )
