No, it’s not okay. Threatening or bullying is emotional abuse and intimidation, not “protectiveness.” A caring family can ask tough questions, set boundaries, or express concern, but they don’t get to terrorize her boyfriend. That’s controlling, toxic, and a huge red flag for her freedom and future relationships.

When my daughter started getting serious with a guy, I told him that he better take good care of her... Or else.
That's not bullying or threatening. It's being a father.
And he got the message.

  The "or else" part of what you said was a threat.

Luckily my dad and brother are not like that and never did. If he did anything bad enough to deserve them intervening, I'd have been done with the guy before they needed to anyway.

Sure, that's part of the process of dating isn't it?
