In order to preserve PR status of Canada, I have read that I have to stay in Canada for
730 day out of 5 years. But as of today If I move to Canada (which I want to),
I have some 600 days of stay in Canada, before my PR card gets expired.
Is there a way that even if my PR card gets expired, still I can stay in Canada and
complete my another 130 days (730 in total) and get the another valid PR card or may live
another year to get the citizenship ?
Yes, go to Canada while your PR card is still valid. When it expires, stay in Canada and don't travel and do not apply to renew until you have 730 days. After you have completed your first 5 years as a PR, the period in question is always the last 5 years so you must have your 730 days within the 5 year period immediately before you apply to renew.

No - this isn't true. The six month rule is an old rule that no longer applies.
To maintain your PR status, you must live in Canada 2 out of every 5 rolling years. You are allowed to be out of the country for longer than six months.
