Are you looking to claim a tax offset for maintaining an invalid or carer (https://www.ato.gov.au/Individuals/Income-deductions-offsets-and-records/Tax-offsets/Offset-for-maintaining-an-invalid-or-invalid-carer/)? If so then yes you can claim your spouse as a carer, as long as you fit into the criteria on the page linked above.
