Short answer is no. You cannot claim the job offer points.

You need an approved LMIA from your employer to claim the 50 points on a PGWP.

You do not get the points unless you have an approved LMIA or your job is LMIA exempt.

Please read the guidance here:

A deputation letter is not classified as a job offer by IRCC for the purposes of Express Entry. Again, since you are on an open work permit, your employer must get an approved LMIA if you want to qualify for the 50 points.

Your employer goes through the LMIA process like any employer hiring a temporary foreign worker. So ask your employer to review all information on the IRCC about LMIAs. Your employer has post the job, and prove no one can do the job. Salary must be the median salary for the region. Then once no worker can be hired, your employer fills out the paperwork for a LMIA.
