Hi i along with my spouse and child got our PR in March 2019 . Both wife and kids have spent 1200 days plus but i could not spend 730 days mandatory for PR renewal . I was told my spouse and kids can individually apply for their PR renewal . Is that correct and what are options for me to stay with them ?

Each individual applies for PR renewal on their own anyway.

Are you in Canada and residing in Canada? Simply stay until you have more than the 730 days, plus some buffer (two to four weeks?). Then apply.

If you're outside of Canada, it gets more complicated.

If you got your PR in March 2019, your PR should be valid until March 2024. You still have ~6 months to meet the RO.
If you wouldn't be able to meet your RO by then, return to Canada as soon as possible and continue to stay to meet your RO and then apply.

Also what were the reasons that you stayed 450+ more days outside of Canada without your spouse and child?
If you worked outside of Canada for a Canadian business, then those days may count towards your RO.
