Is there anyway you can increase your score for spouse accompanying?
You're exposing yourself to some unnecessary scrutiny. When you tick "NO" in the box to the question "Is spouse accompanying you", next question you'll get is "Why?". And you'll have to answer that truthfully, and give a convincing reason as to why your own wife won't be coming with you.
Visa officers are aware of this "trick", and will need to be satisfied of your response through all your application.

-Did you do your best in your languages tests? Maybe you can retake the exam. Aim high. Aim for CLB9 or above in all sections.
-Have you checked if you're eligible for the various PNP streams?
-Has your spouse taken language tests and done ECA?
-Have you already reached 3 years of work experience? You can reach the maximum points at 3 years of XP.
I would say don't exclude spouse in your application. You're exposing yourself to some risks.
Some people don't include spouse because they have legitimate reason, like being in the process of a divorce. In your case, you just want to squeeze in more points.
