The short answer is no. This is not how the ICT works.

You would need to return to India, work for your company in India for a year or more - and then they could try filing an ICT for you to come to Canada.

FYI - you actually do not meet the ICT requirements. See the requirements here:

I heard conversion is possible, if the candidate has worked in previous company in recent past
