I am Completing my 5 years in March 2019 whereas my Spouse and children are completing in July 2020.If I apply ILR in March 2019 what will happen to my Spouse and children visa status?
Can my Spouse and children switch to Spouse visa of Settled resident (WITHOUT RESETTING THE 5 YEAR continuous resident period) once I successfully obtain ILR?

No.
If you get ILR based on PBS route, your dependents can continue as PBS Dependents. There is NO requirement for them to switch visas in this case.

What date was their first PBS Dependent visa issued??
It is usually useful to state all the important information if you expect useful advice from an internet forum.

What about life in the UK test and English test does my spouse need to qualify as well?
will it be possible to refer to Appendix or rule written to convince my immigration solicitor where it says that dependents qualify from visa issuance date and not completing 5 years for ILR.

Yes, this is mandatory for ILR. Must be English B1 from an HO approved test provider.
Re qualifying from visa start date, I would be concerned if your 'solicitor' wasn't aware of the changes in the rules that came into affect in January this year, see link below. Note, that a solicitor is not required for ILR and has no influence on your application.

You are eligible to apply from Feb 2019 but you do not qualify for job creation until July 2019.
So earliest if you apply in July 2019, you need 2 FT JOBS that have existed for 12 months each AFTER March 2018 (July 2018 - July 2019) in your case.
