Yes - you can apply for a work permit if you meet work permit requirements.

Before you can apply for a work permit, you need to obtain a full time job offer from an employer in Canada. Also, the employer has to obtain an approved LMIA. The LMIA process is quite long and expensive - and requires the employer to prove no Canadian could be found for the role.
