You can of course land and declare PR by road. The really busy road crossings around Niagara Falls will only land people outside their really busy periods, but you should be fine on the Montreal area crossings

To clarify, those particular border crossings will only process those who are flagpoling during certain times. Those who actually live outside of Canada are processed at any time.
