Yes - it's possible. Your employer first has to obtain an approved LMIA (expect this to take 4-6 months). Once your employer has an approved LMIA, you can then apply for a closed work permit tied to that specific employer. Once your work permit is approved, you can then start working full time and drop out of school.

What if the spouse and child are tied to the Study Permit? Can they apply as dependent to the work permit from my employer?

Yes if it is NOC 0, A or B. It is a long process. If you are in school you must continue studying or you will lose your study permit and you must attend school if you want to work part-time while you wait.
