So I originally came to Canada in 2017 and received an open work permit plus a SIN number then.
I’m now back in Canada and just received my open work permit while awaiting the processing of my spousal PR.
My question is, does my SIN number stay the same? Or do I need to head to a service Canada and get a new one?

Same
 
How long ago did you leave? Did the SIN start with 9? If it was a 9 SIN it may have been released and re-used.
Would be worth heraeding to Service Canada to check.

No, wait until you get PR. Until you get PR, your sin number is temporary. Once you have l become PR then you go into services Canada with your COPR
