2) for OWP there is only inland Process available ?

3) if i visit Canada on my visitor visa, will it be possible to apply for OWP inside Canada as my visa on spousal sponsorship?

4) which category type mention on my passport if i get approval on spousal sponsorship (Like V-1, S-1, W-1 etc )

You are looking for the wrong way to come to Canada. Spousal sponsorship is for Permanent Residents and their spouses. What you are looking for is called Spouse Open Work Permit (link below) which is for you as a spouse of an International Student. So your questions are irrelevant to your case. For the Spouse OWP, you can apply from within Canada (after coming to Canada as a visitor) or from outside Canada with no problem. Good Luck!
