I worked the whole year but my wife only worked 4m total this yr so I was wondering if when we file can we still use her income along with mine also? We file mar joint?

You don't have a choice. All income from all sources paid to all taxpayers on the return, gets reported on that tax return - be it a joint return or not. Wouldn't matter if your wife only worked and got paid for 1 hour the whole year.
