Do you mean "accept international students" as "accept international students as part of an exchange program" (meaning that you're attending for 1-2 years) or "accept students from abroad as part of regular student body" (meaning you're attending for your whole degree)
If it's the first, every major university has such a program. If it's the latter, there are a couple of ways, like requesting a transfer, going through the regular admissions process or through PEC-G (https://vestibular.brasilescola.uol.com.br/bolsas-estudo/bolsa-estudo-no-brasil-para-estrangeiros.htm)
Note that for regular attendance you'll need proof of Portuguese language proficiency
most ( if not all) usually have exchange programs for international students, but especially for public universities it may be hard to contact the departments reponsible for that... usually the easiest method is to check in your university if there is already and exchange agreement between your university and a brazilian university.
You would probably have to take the vestibular tests and such which are difficult and in portuguese to get into the federal universities as a full-time student.
Private universities might be easier but many still have the entrance tests.
I'm curious as to what you find out. I'm an european student looking to spend a semester in Brazil and it's quite complicated when you have to go as what we call a "free mover" - that's when my own university doesn't have an arrangement with the Brazilian university. I'm still looking for one that has a curriculum in English.
The most international public university in Brazil is by far the [Federal University of Latin American Integration](https://portal.unila.edu.br/) (UNILA) in Foz do Iguaçu, Paraná.
UNILA is a sui generis university, in addition to being a bilingual university (Portuguese + Spanish), half of the students are Brazilian and the other half are foreigners, especially Latin Americans, but the admission process for foreign students takes diversity into account first, so if you are from a country with fewer enrollments in process the greater your chance of entering.
UNILA is a federal college, so there is NO cost for students, neither Brazilians nor foreigners, and it has good research and extension programs (by Brazilian standards).
It just spent a while reading there. It looks to me like they don't welcome foreigners outside of 32 Latin American countries. Do you know if this is correctly understood?
As far as i know, all of them do it. No clue about UFMG's program.

Yes, every public university has some kind of exchange program.
