Can I work in Saudi if I go in family visa?

Ladies on family visas can't work. However, rules will change soon.

Thanks a lot for quick response.

Can i try to get a teaching job there? and go with working visa and then live with my husband?
It this is possible?

Possible but very rare, most teaching jobs are locally filled by dependent wives and hence you might not see it advertised.

Now - what is the real score with regards to (wives)dependent working in Schools? I could not find (as of now) any relevant circular or news from ministry websites to confirm the news being printed in the papers, like the MOE has given a circular allowing international schools to hire teachers(dependents-visa)as long as qualified, not more than 60 y/o., and that these international schools will be exempt from the jawazat/MOL 'crackdown' after the amnesty...

You are right, we all are awaiting official notification in this regard, nothing yet as of now.
