I am a landed PR currently working in US. I was wondering if I would be able to successfully pursue job search from USA. I can visit canada for interviews but my concern is will the company even care to contact me as I am not currently in Canada. Has any one tried canadian job search while still working/living in US? Please share your experience.

I can give you a bit of advice I got - make sure to include in your cover letter your intentions to remain in Canada permanently. Apparently many PRs work for a year or two, then leave Canada for whatever reason. (Basically get their residency then move on.) Companies want long term employees, of course, so be sure to let them know you're planning to remain long term.
