I can renew my PR card 9 month befroe it expires

my card expires on jul 06 2024, so I can renew in the october 2023

if I strat coculating 5 years before from oct 2023 that was oct 2018

I didnt recive my pr at that time , but I stayed in canada from oct 2018- oct 2019 does this year can be count

as a year I stay in canada , and does this year is valid for my Pr card renew.

No, time spent in Canada before PR cannot be counted towards your PR residency requirement.

Are you on track to be compliant with your RO in the 5 years since your landing date? I’m sorry I don’t understand what you mean by “as a year I stay in canada , and does this year is valid for my Pr card renew.”
