Hello,
If you're outside of Canada, you can apply for a work permit attaching your job offer letter and nomination letter (I assume you've been nominated by a province). Most likely, you'll receive a closed work permit which entitles you to work for a specific employer and for the length of your contract.
Your spouse, however, does not qualify for an open work permit (your job skills is NOC D and not NOC 0,A,B). She can apply for a visitor visa and the maximum she can stay is 6 months.
Please check cic's website for details, there may be a way for her to extend her visitor visa once she's in Canada.
