No - you can't apply for a work permit as of now.

To qualify to apply for a work permit, you must first find an employer in Canada who is willing to offer you a job in Canada. That employer must then obtain an approved Labour Market Opinion (LMO). Once you have the job offer and approved LMO, you can then apply for a work permit.

You didn't get the requirements right. First some one (employer) needs to offer you a job. Then they would apply for LMO to government of Canada on your behalf (unless your profession is LMO exempt). This involves paying some fee to Govt. of Canada and proving that they were not able to find a suitable replacement of yours. This also includes the employer having posted the job publicly for some time. Once all this is done and you receive the LMO through your employer, you would apply for the work permit at your local embassy. The embassy does evaluate your profile against the job you are going for. It is possible that if your credentials and experience doesn't exactly match with the job you are going for, the embassy could still refuse a visa. However, there is no strict criteria of minimum experience in terms of number of years.

IELTS depends on case to case. If you are going for a low skilled job or a job involving public dealing, you might be required by the embassy to do so. However, if your experience has been in a skilled job which clearly shows your english abilities i.e. those experiences could not have been acquired without maintaining a certain level of english, then you wouldn't need IELTS.
