A United States citizen spouse can sponsor a foreign national spouse provided that the foreign national entered the United States with a visa. The felony record of your spouse would be grounds that would render him inadmissible, so you would have to file a waiver after you filed the adjustment of status application. Filing a waiver should be done by a lawyer.
