Have a Samsung Galaxy J3 (2016) model J320W8. It is not specifically listed as compatible.
Does anyone know for sure if it is?

Since Telus and PM are on the same network, I don't think your experience will change... other than the throttled LTE. Band 4 is recommended when buying a phone, but I'm guessing it would be in the Telus world too.
These are Telus' frequencies and as you can see, Band 4 is the main Band there too.

I found this on this site:
"Any phone you are considering should ideally have 3G B2, B5 and LTE B4, B12 (or B17 instead of B12) for minimum coverage. If your phone does not have all recommended bands, you may have poor coverage / no service / slow data in some locations."
So looks like phone does not have LTE B4 and only has B12.
Not sure if should try PM or not. I am currently on a Telus plan and have had no problems to date with the phone but really havent used much.

Your phone support the following bands according to https://www.samsung.com/ca/support/model/SM-J320WZAAXAC/
It should work with PM.
Telus network uses the following bands:
4G
3G
