Hi, my study visa is expiring by the end of this month and my boyfriend’s pnp is approved and he applied for federal for about a month ago. Can I get work permit if we marry or can I stay in Canada. We are in relationship from 2 years. So I just wanna know if there’s any possibility of getting work permit if we marry or can I stay here.

If he becomes a PR, you will not be entitled to a work permit through him, even if you marry. There are no spousal work permits for PR's spouses. If you marry BEFORE he becomes a PR, you must be added to his application and you may become a PR at the same time as him. If you marry after he becomes a PR, he can sponsor you for PR. Otherwise you gain no automatic status via marriage.
Thanks, as he already applied his application a month ago is it possible that if we marry now and he can add about our marriage to his application now and then can I stay in Canada if I convert my student visa to visitor visa.
Yes, he can, (in fact MUST), add you to his application if you marry before he becomes a permanent resident. Then, extend/change your visa to a visitor.
