You mean you have a multiple entry one, right? If so, you may need to apply a new one in Australia.
May I know which nationality does your wife have? If she is a Chinese citizen, you can apply a Q1 visa. Then after you entering China, you can change it to a resident permit within 30 days entering China to live in China for more than 180 days. If she is a foreinger, you can apply for a S1. Then you still need to change it a resident permit.

Hope it is helpful ~
