No. I don't beleive that Win98 supports multi-language UI (as does 2K/XP etc..

You can change keyboards layouts, currencies, date/time formats and even codepage (although this is the same as USEnglish anyway) etc.. This can be done from the Regional settings applet in the Control Panel. For a full PTB UI, you'll need to purchase/install the Portuguese version of Win98.
