i don't know if there might be a special package for portugese
or if package custom-bib may help.
the plain-style bst file is in
/usr/share/texmf/bibtex/bst/base/plain.bst
it's not difficult to edit this file.
in every bst-file is a function for the names. here you can change
the word "and" to "e". in all other bst-files you'll find this
function, too.
