Is there anyway to not include my wife to increase my EE score? Like, after I receive PV, I re-marry her?
 
unless you are legally separated or divorced you must include her in your application. no other option
 
You absolutely must include her in the application, if you keep this information secret, it will be misrepresentation and your app will be cancelled and you might be banned from applying for few years actually.

You have to disclose the fact that you are married and furnish her details but there is a question asked " if your spouse is accompanying you to Canada". If you answer this as NO, your score will go slightly high but then, getting your wife later with you to Canada will be very tough.

i am in the same situation

i said yes to the question are you married.

can i say no to spouse not accompanying. and can i apply for spousal PR later once i get PR.

as she is also in canada and is on work permit till july,2016 and she also had a visit visa to canada.

is it true that once we get a work permit our visit visa will be cancelled.

please advise what is the best option.

You can do that. You'll still have to get the Medical done even if spouse isn't accompanying you.

Do check the average wait time for spousal sponsorship - I believe they would be far longer than the EE timelines. That's the trade-off.

I'm not sure of this now and I'm also not able to cite any source for my guess here (my guess is No, it will expire naturally without being cancelled). I'll defer to someone who is sure and can site a source for their answer.
