Nope.

YOUR = possessive pronoun.
---- Examples:
Is this YOUR house?
YOUR brother is cute.

YOU'RE = YOU ARE
---- Examples:
YOU'RE the best student in the class.
Please explain what YOU'RE doing.

Yes, you are correct. There is an incorrect punctuation in the sentence you provided. The correct punctuation should be: "She said you're invited to the party, and your brother too."

To explain the mistake, "you're" is a contraction of "you are," while "your" is a possessive pronoun indicating ownership. In this context, "you're" is the appropriate form to use because it means "you are invited." The comma before "and" is also necessary to separate the two independent clauses in the sentence.
