As long as you still have the I-94 card showing you entered the U.S. under a tourist visa along with your boyfriend being a U.S. Citizen then once he becomes your husband he can petition you for your green card without having to depart the U.S. (providing you have not committed crimes etc.)

Did you enter with a valid I-94. You have to prove you were inspected. If so your boyfriend can sponsor you. You can call my offices at 4082452416 for a free consultation.
