Yes, it is. I stayed in US for 5 years on L1B. Your spouse can get L2 visa. And can get an EAD and work in US. This option is not there in H1B. On the downside, you have to go through the gruesome L1B extension process and can't extent beyond 5 years even if you have an approved I-140. Also, you cannot switch jobs in L1B.
