Tenancy agreement is just one of several other documents that you may use to as evidence of cohabitation.
So, agree with earlier response that not having a tenancy agreement will not affect your ILR application if you can prove cohabitation through other forms of (prescribed) docuemtary evidence(s).
If still in doubt, you may request a letter from the home owner to certify that you and your spouse have been living together at his/her residence since XYZ date. This would help, if caseworker asks for it while screening your application. Alternatively, how difficult is it to draft a backdated tenancy agreement, given the fact that the landlord is your wife's brother?
