Samba Parades from Rio and São Paulo are generally produced in brazilian TVs Globo, and/or, Band. Globo is much focused in Rio de Janeiro. Band presents Rio, São Paulo, Salvador and Recife.
I have some brazilian friends who keep watch on brazilian TVs in US, via Internet.
I believe they use streaming ways to do that.

Maybe the below link will help you in finding out:

Hello!
I don't think it will be possible to watch the samba parade in real time on the internet. However, TV Globo is the one which broadcasts the parade in Rio de Janeiro. Here is the link for Globo International, in case you wish to check their schedule.

I just couldn't find an english version of the website.

If you don't mind watching the parade after it happened there will surely be some videos available on youtube.

Yes, definitelly there are options to watch the
samba parade in Rio de Janeiro over the Internet!
However I do it every year and all the years I have to search for the links for streaming TV :)
I hope that gets to you in time:

I found 2 options to watch live broadcasting over Internet
for Sunday and Monday of Carnival 2011:
