No - you can't apply for a job or a work permit just because you have a visit visa.

To apply for a work permit, you must first find an employer in Canada who is willing to hire you. That employer must then obtain an approved Labour Market Opinion and prove they couldn't find a Canadian to hire for the role. If this is approved, only then can you apply for a work permit.
