Yes, your husband/father can give you rights to your stepson. It's a temporary guardianship. You need to apply to a Superior Court with the paperwork signed by your husband. However, you need to find the stepson and find out if he wants to live with you. At 14 years old, he might have to consent to the guardianship.
