The purpose of a partner visa is to be able to be in Australia with your partner. If you are no longer together, then you both have an obligation to inform DIBP of that.
No, you can't apply for a bridging visa to stay while you look for another eligible visa. Like said above, they give you time to arrange to leave.
If your partner visa ends up refused because they find out you're lying about currently being together, then you aren't helping yourself in getting any other eligible visas to live in Australia in the future.
Best to be honest in these situations. You're no longer together and your partner is right for not wanting to lie to a government agency about it. Not sure but it seems better to withdraw the app than get a refusal.
