I am in the US on a B2 visa, I married my long time boyfriend (who is now an American citizen) last November 7. I am in the process of completing all forms necessary for my I-485 application. My I-94 will expire on January 17, 2021, I will submit the I-485 and I-130 on or before the end of November. Do I need to apply for I-539 - Application to extend/change nonimmigrant status? Thank you in advance for your advise.

No. It is not necessary, and it requires you to lie, since it requires a statement of your plans to leave the US, and you don't plan to leave the US.
This is my personal opinion and is not to be construed as legal advice.
