What is a brake booster?

The brake booster is what gives you power brakes. In the engine compartment in front of the steering wheel is a round black flat ball looking thing.

Can you be able to brake with a vacuum leak in the brake booster?

If the vacuum leak is small, then yes the brake booster will still function well enough to assist the braking action. However, if the vacuum leak is very large, or if the brake booster rubber diaphragm is ruptured , then the brake booster will be inoperative and you will NOT have power assist to the brakes. It's wise to just replace the power brake booster with a new unit if there is an internal leak in it, to avoid an accident due to a loss of braking power.
