Could this be a case where a conjugal application I would be accepted?

It could be. Although that ultimately depends on if the visa officer reviewing the file agrees that there were suitable barriers to getting married, and accepts the conjugal claim. Before going that route they should exhaust all ways of getting married first.

I like to ask is it possible to bring my fiance here in severe cases? She says the fighting is reaching her area and she fears for her life and is telling me just forget about me and what happens I am going to die she is very scared, is there any way I can convince canadian immigration to bring her here? I don't know what to do in such a situation

No - you can't. Canada has no fiance sponsorship class.

She could apply, if appropriate, to the UNHCR for refugee status. http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/refugees/outside/index.asp The requirements will have to be met, including that she must flee to another country.

Hello I am currently engaged from september 15 2013 but I had to come back after my engagement and fiance stayed back home, we were going to get married this summer but as I am from Libya and if you all know
the situation down there is very bad the airport had been closed so I am wondering if I can get married here as her brother is in the same city I currently live and we can read the marriage ceremony while she is absent and currently in Libya so I can the apply for marriage sponsorship, we have photos and everything to prove that we are together however I like to know if I can finalize our marriage so I can get the marriage certificate done in Canada while she isn't here at the moment. If you can please reply as soon as possible that will be greatly appreciated.

The other thing is because of the situation down there, is it possible that I can bring here on some compassionate basis like let them know my wife is in Libya and situation is bad and I can't leave her there. Your response is greatly appreciated
Canada does not allow Marriages by proxy,
but they allow marriages through conference call...
he can be present somewhere else, and marry while in the phone...

A lawyer should bring more light to the procedures
