You are a family of 3 so funds for 3 people ($20k). You include all people in your family. What is your CRS score?
Doesn't matter if you are non-accompanying or accompanying. Funds must be shown for 3 people.
Doesn’t matter. Funds for 3 people. Score will not be high enough for EE. Not known when it will drop below 480. Also don’t one of you have a 5 year ban?

Still doesn’t matter. You are a family of 3. Family may not have receive invitation, have been nominated or received COPR by time your ban is finished. Express Entry rules are most likely changing and maybe NOC specific. 478 used to be a good score but last draws are over 530. Look at PNP programs based on NOC.

One more question dear,when we need to keep settlement funds in bank account ,pre ITA or after ITA???? Or when we create express entry or pnp profile?
Information in the link.
The funds must be available both when you apply and when (if) we issue you a permanent resident visa. You must prove to an immigration officer that you can legally access the money to use here when you arrive.

What is your spouse’s NOC?
1221 ……. In this link it means need to show funds after my spouse receive invitation to apply or on that time when she submitted docs after accepting ITA?
Again, three.
I don't think your wife can apply if you are inadmissible due to a ban. To the best of my knowledge, this means the application will be refused. All dependents (accompanying and non-accompanying) have to be admissible.
@scylla is correct...should have realized it.
Because you are inadmissible, your spouse and child are inadmissible as the application cannot be processed.
In most cases, an applicant will be found inadmissible on the grounds of having an inadmissible family member if that person, whether accompanying or not has been determined to be inadmissible [A42(1)].
An accompanying family member who is inadmissible will make the applicant inadmissible. Even if the family member is non-accompanying, there are circumstances under which the applicant is still inadmissible [R23].

So once your are admissible in 2024, then begin the process.

Does she have a job offer and approved LMIA? Or eligible under LMIA exemption? She needs to find employment with LMIA in her field. So once she has a job offer the employer pays $1k and files for the LMIA showing that no Canadian or PR could do the job, only your wife. Then once she has LMIA, she applies for a closed work permit. Few employers go through the process. If no to both, then it will be difficult. Processing may be long depending where you live.
