No. Brazilians are used to some tourists, and indeed some people worldwide, not knowing that there even is such a thing as the Portuguese language. They also are used to other tourists, and indeed other people throughout the world, thinking that Brazilian Portuguese needs to be spoken according to the standards of Portugal or of the Spanish-speaking countries. And so Brazilians tend to be appreciative of Portuguese speakers, be they from Portugal or from any one of the former Portuguese colonies. For Brazilians tend to be easy-going, hospitable, and welcoming. Likewise, they tend not to find any one language offensive, because of Brazil being a melting pot of many cultures and languages. But what Brazilians tend not to appreciate is a rude, unappreciative attitude that disrespects the rights of others. And so it's neither the language nor the language speaker, but an attitude that may be offensive to Brazilians.
