Legal Answer
If entered the USA illegally, it could be possible to obtain a green card, BUT your foreign spouse will have to go to her/his native country to apply for a visa and a hardship waiver.
A foreign spouse is not eligible for citizenship at this time.
A foreign spouse who came to USA illegally, normally, can't apply for a green card by processing it within the USA.

Legal Answer
You'll likely need to apply for the K-3 spouse visa in combination with a I-601 waiver.
