Yes, he can. He and the mother have to sign Voluntary Acknowledgment of Paternity.A father will be shown on the birth certificate only if he acknowledges paternity when or close in time to the birth, or the Court orders the birth certificate to be changed to reflect the Fathers name.

All you need is the birth mother willingly to relinquish her parental rights by signing the appropriate consent forms. And you and your husband to petition for adoption. Preferable in a single court proceeding.
