PNP is an immigration program for permanent residence. Anyone can apply as long as they meet the eligibility criteria - you aren't likely to meet the criteria unless you're already working for a few years. If you do qualify, there's nothing stopping you from applying for a PNP/Express Entry at the same time as you're applying for any other visa.

Study permits/visas are temporary programs - they don't give you the rights of a PR, though there are various routes to getting a PR after you have studied and worked in Canada.

Okay . Do you know any other routes or programs that's available for students that wish to study in Canada ?

The study permit - what other route do you need?

Go to BC province. Finish a master of PhD degree at eligible University in BC in 8 fields ( math etc.), you can get nomination. No working experience needed ( paper based, which took 1.5 year get PR).
