You could certainly do that. keep a buffer of 60 days in your travel plan to secure a PRTD. You must apply for PRTD after reaching there.
You may get PR card in 1 week after getting eCoPR from the portal. is this not the case now?

It says on website hope so. PRTD website says residency obligations any idea what is that?
The new type of CoPR document i.e. eCoPR specifically says the following :
"If you leave Canada without a permanent resident card, you will have to apply for a permanent resident travel document through a visa office. Otherwise, you will not be able to board a commercial vehicle (plane, train, bus or boat) to come back to Canada."
So, I think as per the CoPR document it is allowed to obtain PRTD as new PR's.
Residency obligations are to be adhered, in cases where someone left Canada after getting PR status and they couldn't not meet the requirements of 730 days of physical presence in last 5 years.
The eCoPR will give you a PR status from the day it is issued. From that day you get 5 year to count 730 days, so in case of new PR it can be easily met because they will come back in few months or days.
RO is applicable in cases where PR's who lived outside of Canada for more than 3 years, so logically they could not meet the requirement of 730 days.
@shashi_b , 1. how do we send all the documents to through email? Should we zip all the documents keeping in a folder?
2. Should we give soft copy of the photo?
3. Whats the link for fee payment?
@BrijeshPatra
1. Please use single PDF document.
2. Yes
3. After receiving Passport request letter from IRCC you will have to contact VFS to get payment link for courier charges and VFS processing fee.
But we also have to pay 50$ fees initially right while applying for PRTD?
