Margarine can be used as a substitute for the butter.
You would probably end up with a crust something like a Granola bar. Instead of graham crackers you can use Vanilla Wafers. I'm assuming you are making a pie crust.
To make a graham cracker crust that doesn't fall apart, ensure that you use enough melted butter to bind the crumbs together thoroughly. Press the mixture firmly into the pan and bake it before adding the filling to help it set.
To make a delicious chocolate graham cracker crust, combine crushed graham crackers, cocoa powder, sugar, and melted butter. Press the mixture into a pie dish and bake for 10 minutes. Allow to cool before adding your desired filling.

I'm not sure where you are, but in the British Isles, digestive biscuits are a substitute for texture and flavour (but not exactly the same). If you aren't set on the flavour, just use a crunchy cookie of whatever flavour you like. I just saw a recipe for using unfrosted cornflakes, butter, and sugar to make a graham cracker pie crust, but I've not tried that.
