Yes but it is going to be a way too lengthy process, spousal program timelines are crazy.

Yes however during your PR process, you should be able to provide explanation why your spouse is not included in the application. You can check this thread for spousal program details.

Depending where your spouse is from, it could be anywhere from a few months to well over a year. You must be living in Canada while sponsoring your spouse and it's quite possible your spouse will not be approved for a TRV to Canada. So assume you will be separated during the time it takes for the PR application to be processed.

I did not add my spouse name( accompanying member) because of point issue. I gave the reason that my wife will join with me later(after completing her studies). During CSQ interview, I mentioned the same. They seem fine with that. Now I'm processing my federal part.
Do not forget to add ur spouse name as non-accompany member in the application. As long as u include this information, you have no problem to apply PR for her after your PR
