Im planning to use my degrees/diplomas from country of origin for the language requirement. However they are in my maiden name. My PR and application are under my married name. Based on the published guidelines I’m planning to use my marriage certificate to link my maiden name to my spouses name as the link. Has anyone done this and been successful ?

Yes, I have done the same for my wife and we have successfully got COPR ( a step before PR card).
You need to give notarised affidavit of "one and the same name" Along with your application. Search for the format of this affidavit on this forum.
