Is there a way for my wife to get PRSI Credit (For contributory pension) for the years she took off on maternity leave, when living outside the country?
 
for the years she took off on maternity leave, when living outside the country?
Was she on maternity leave from a job in this other country? Or full-time carer for kids? Or both?

What was the country? When was it?

Detail might help you get a better response.
 
She was working in the UK before taking 4 years off around the early years of our 2 children, then she returned to Ireland and returned to work. Overall she was "off work" for about 5 years, from the time she gave up work after the birth of our second child, until we returned to Ireland.
