If the nationality in Q has no connection to sustained prejudice within that culture/society, and you know that the person in Q would be cool with it anyway, then yes it is.
What extensive racism have Brazilians faced in the UK in the past 50 years, to then claim that mocking their accents would cause offense?
Mocking Indian accent = Inference to racism that Indians have endured and overcome for half a century
Mocking Brazilian accent = No inference
Also, Marcus mocking was done in AN ARGUMENT, as a form of ATTACK. Not 'playfully'.
