Yes. There is no citizenship requirement or screening for marriage in the United States. In any state where same-sex marriage is legal, a binational same-sex couple can marry. However, you should know that it is not currently possible to obtain legal Immigration status by same-sex marriage.

Yes. There is no residency requirement for marriage in the United States. You will have to marry in a state that has legalized same-sex marriage, however. Marrying an American citizen of the same-sex will not help you in getting a US visa, green card or American citizenship, however.

I assume by "permanent visa" you mean "permanent resident status." In that case, Yes, in Canada, Mexico, Argentina, Uruguay and the United States, you can. (Sorry, but you asked about "America.")
