Not automatically. You would still need to apply for a permanent resident visa (commonly called a "green card") in order to legally live in the US. However, being married to a US citizen does speed up that process. If you don't get a green card, you would be risking getting arrested and deported back to your home country- and if you get deported, you are prohibited from getting a green card for a long time.

Can a UK citizen marry a US citizen while vacationing in the US?

You can but be aware, that the UK citizen cannot legally change their status while in the US. It depends on where you both want to live. If the US citizen wants to come back to the UK, a marriage visa is needed from the British Embassy in the US. However if the UK citizen wants to live in the US, they will have to go back to the UK and the US citizen will then need to file the I-130. Until it comes through you cannot live in the US, but will have to wait in the UK.
