Postmodernism and Marxism don't go together, postmodernism argues against grand narratives, models, methods, or ideologies as a way to sufficiently explain the world and dictate facts and social order. Postmodernism is therefore not an ideology but the lack thereof.
Marxism is a systematic, materialist theory of inevitable historical development, Marxists make claims, have moral agendas, and construct conceptual systems.
Postmodernism also shows playful and nihilistic elements as seen in the works by for example Kurt Vonnegut, bot hthese elements are not visible in Marxism.
Marx was also deeply concerned about the science and the passing of his works in materially grounded analysis.
If anything Marxism has been rather hostile towards postmodernism, they see it as a societal change that makes people a lot less understanding, and see beliefs as if they are interests.
