Is it permissible for a girl to marry with the consent of her brothers and the refusal of her paternal uncles, knowing that her father is deceased and her brothers are adults?

The brother has more right to marry off the woman than the paternal uncle, unless there is a legitimate religious impediment. If her brother marries her off, the marriage is valid, and the uncle has no right to refuse it unless there is a legitimate religious justification.
