I have not seen anything to suggest that changes to the family settlement routes will be coming into force in February, the only date that appears to have been mentioned is April

In any event, even if there were changes to the family settlement route coming into force in Feb

- they won't apply to a dependent of a tier 2 migrant who is applying for ILR under the PBS dependent rules.

- they are also unlikely to apply retrospectively to a spouse of a settled person who has already been granted a spouse visa/limited leave as the spouse of a settled person for 27 months/2 years.

I guess even if new policy announced at Feb, it will implement in April.
