No, you can't. CIC states that you are only allowed to work 40 hours during holidays. If you choose to work more than 40 hours and get caught, you will have problems.

Illegally then. Unless you were given some sort of work permit on the side, specifically stating you allowance to do so - which I doubt they do.

It is 20 hours per week during study terms.
And 40 hours per week during holidays.

Actually, I was told by most of the universities that I asked for information that you can only work up to 40h/ week during your holidays.
Take this link as an example:
