Yes. None of the jurisdictions in the United States that permit same-sex marriage have a citizenship requirement for the marriage license. The couple must appear in person to apply for the license and show identification sufficient to satisfy the issuing authority. That ID can certainly be a foreign passport. Tourists frequently marry in foreign cities. The clerk will not examine the entire passport to see if there is a valid U.S. Visa and, even if he/she did, the absence of legal Immigration status does not justify denial of the license.

Yes. There is no citizenship requirement or screening for marriage in the United States. If you are a gay man, you can marry a male illegal alien in any state where same-sex marriage is legal.

Is it legal if you are an Australian citizen and want to get married to an illegal alien in the USA?

I am not immigration lawyer or anything like that. But I believe that if it is very hard for a US citizen to marry an illegal alien in the US (because of all the paperwork and time that it takes and the legth of time, one year or more. Often the illegal alien will HAVE to go back to their country and start the paperwork process from there). That's why it seems to me that it would be even more difficult for a permanent resident alien to marry an illegal alien, but perhaps not imposible-- perhaps. That is assuming that you are a permanet resident alien of the US or have a similar visa.
