I am going to install a vanity marble top with sink onto my vanity

I sure would not. Assuming what you're talking about is sealing
around the edges where the basin meets the vanity, I would use
a clear mold resistant silicone. It sets up. Plumbers putty
remains soft, pliable and very sticky.

Until it dries out. Then it turns to powder.
