I'm in Canada on closed work permit, and my spouse is on dependent open work permit(not working). For both, Permit/Visa expiry date is in 6 months time. But now I got a job in usa and going there shortly.

1.Can my spouse continue staying in Canada after I leave for few months ?
2.Can my spouse get h4 stamping (along with me) and comeback to Canada and stay by herself or stay with her friends/brother for 2 or 3 months. ?

Thanks for the reply.

Your spouse can stay/come back until her WP/Visa expires (6 months).

To stay longer she should apply for visitor status before WP expires.

If you get a new WP in Canada sheven can get a new SOWP.

Thanks for the reply.

As I am not working in Canada, Will she be still allowed to re-enter Canada if she comes to states(on H4) for some days.

As far as any person carries a valid WP is OK (and Visa if required)

If you're working or not doesn't matter

I really don't know about H4, just I'm guessing it doesn't affects a Canadian WP.
