Can I apply Spouse Open Work Permit for my spouse if I am about to get a PR

Hello everyone,

Just cut the chase, my current status is working on an Open Work Permit. And I am about to receive my PR status (passport already sent to CPC-O).
I got married lately and included my spouse who is in China in the application but added as Non-Accompanying Dependent. I would like to bring her to Canada as soon as possible but it seems that her PR application might take quite a while after I got mine.

So I am wondering if I could apply an Open Work Permit for her or should I wait to apply it after I got PR?

Thanks in advance!
