If I install a 2x6 full width header nailed to all studs, can I then attach brackets between studs if necessary.

No, brackets should not be attached between studs. They must be secured directly into the center of studs or rafters to support the weight and torque of the awning properly. Attaching to a 2x6 header alone, even if nailed to all studs, does not meet the requirement for anchoring into studs or rafters.
