question is straight forward. I want to know if I can download torrents from my browser in Andriod (or iPhone).

Browsers can only download the .torrent file. You would need a torrent client for your device to join a torrent network and download the file that the .torrent file references. I have never researched if there are torrent clients for mobile phones.
