Eligibility for concurrent filing aside, I would not recommended withdrawing the I-539 just in case your pending EB case is denied for any reason. If it is ultimately approved you can withdraw or the USCIS will deny the extension based on your approved I-485.
We are only getting married in the Us because of the only family that is in support of our marriage lives in Dallas. It is interfaith and so the pretext for it in India is dangerous. We both are Indian citizens; I have residency in Canada and my partner will be joining me soon.

Yes, you are permitted to get married in the U.S, despite not having residency status. Please be sure to FIRST contact the court clerk's office in the county where you wish to get married to ensure that you are documentarily qualified for a marriage license in that state. Best of luck!

Paystubs are provided to show that you are currently still employed. However, if you have provided other financial evidence, then you may be okay. If the USCIS requires additional documents after your initial submission, they will send you a Request For Evidence.
