1. Yes she can sponsor as long as you didn't marry before she "landed", is not on welfare, and hasn't sponsored a spouse in 3 years. See http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/immigrate/sponsor/spouse.asp
2. The chances of you getting a TRV to visit Canada is close to nil, as your intention is to remain permanently. So your wife will have to sponsor you.

For sposoring a spouse a Canadian spouse does not need to work (other terms are mentioned in the post above). However, it's better if she works.

How long it'll take you can look at here:
