can a visitor visa be adjusted to like a cr1 while in the us?

No.  You need to petition her properly.

Hello, thanks all for the responses and guidance. yes country of origin is Iran. I am only looking for legal actions for obtaining a green card for my wife. Only problem I see with the cr1 is it will take a long time and from what I have heard ( not sure if its true) I will need to be in the US when sponsoring my wife (domicile) and she will have to be alone with the kids in another country until the approval comes? usually 3-4 years??

 

thanks in advance

Proving domicile, or intent thereof, is possible from out of the country. I lived in Peru for years and years and was able to remain with my spouse for the entire time throughout the entire process. It is possible.
