The more roommates you have, the more issues you'll have.
IF you decide to do this, please make sure you set aside some money in case there's a dispute and you need to leave. A rooming house near a college/university rents rooms fairly cheap with no credit check.

Before you make any move be sure you think clearly about what you may be in for. People may seem "cool" and all, but things have way of changing when you start living with them. It's then that you see people as they really are. If you have privacy issues it may not be such a good thing. Are you sure you will be comfortable being the only female in this household set up? How much of your freedom and independence are you likely to have for yourself? What financial support will be expected from you? Who is going to pitch in and help with the chores around the house? Are there any unforeseen obstacles that may pop up that you're not aware of?
Still though, be sure that you have the means ( job, money, another place lined up) if this doesn't work out for you.

Most likely, it won't help your relationship. With that said, here's 2 cents. Evaluate what your motivations are. Evaluate how well you know these people. How tolerent are you? Living with Roommates is hard. Their quirks will bother you. Make sure you look at everything objectivly and honestly. You won't be the bad guy for saying you just aren't ready for that kind of life commitment. Because honetly, this decision will impact your life greatly. You chose your boyfriend but would you choose his family? Make sure guidelines are set and that you know how you fit into the interpersonal relationships in that household. Everyone involved should be honest about were their priorities and loyalties lie. Do what you feel is best for you and not let fear guide you.

It depends on your age... if youre over 18 then sure. Theres a lot to consider even if you were not over 18. Living with other people is very difficult.... especially three guys.
If you make enough money to live on your own, live on your own.
If you're in a financial bind (or your home life is abusive) and you can live there for free... AND they are mentally stable people... try it.
But I promise you, no matter WHO you ever live with... it comes with drama. Tons of issues come up, that you swear wont come up, and you could end up hating them.
Then again, it may be a good experience. You best think hard about it.

Bad idea...you'll be the only woman living with 3 guys and you'll be treated like their housekeeper. Moving in with your boyfriend is ok...but with his brother and dad...is just a bad mix, no matter how cool they are.
