When you fill out your Spouse's information in the Express Entry Profile, you will be asked if she has ever changed her name. You should answer yes to this question and fill in the details accordingly.

She is also a primary applicant
That's fine. When you start filling the form, enter her new name (Last name, First name) and the subsequent question will be 'Has this person used any other name?'. You should respond 'Yes' and enter her previous name. Just to be extra safe, keep the evidence of her name change handy - example: an Affadavit regarding change of name.
