No, you cannot file I-130 and I485 concurrently. You are not married, and when you do get married, you still will not be able to do it, because she is not a US citizen.

You can only file for a work permit when you file I-485.

Thank you.

So basically, I need to first file 130. When it's approved will i then be able to file 485 and 765 together. Is that right?

yes (and PD is current). in the mean time you have no legal status based on this petition, you better maintain some kind of legal status throughout this time or go home.

Not when it is approved. When it is approved AND your priority date is current, only then.
