Is it right?

I want to buy a phone at that time i asked to my brother, "I would like to buy a new phone can i?"

please correct me the bold and underlined sentence if there is any wrong in grammar, tense or any else.

You have written a very nice sentence, but maybe some people would suggest that you use two sentences: I would like to buy a new phone. Can/May I? (In your sentence, you have a statement and a question together.
