Yes, you sure can. File an I-130 and all the supporting documents with the CIS.
The wait for a visa will be just over 5 years.
Best of luck with the marriage.

I understand that you can but it will take long enough that you may be a citizen before it is approved. Once you are a citizen it is much faster.
Go to uscis. gov
