N is not too young for therapy. In fact, I think it would probably be a great help to him if your brother sought out therapy with a good child therapist now while the child is still so young. These are when the problems start.
As for N having a relationship with his mom...I can completely understand your brother's point, but at the same time, if N is feeling insecure about being with his mother, which it sounds like he is, then maybe the arrangement could be changed somewhat. But I really think that taking N to a child therapist and getting his or her input into what would be best for him is the right route to take.
I hope things improve for your brother and the baby.
