If you read your application guide at http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/pdf/kits/guides/EG7.pdf on page 4 it says that you may apply if:

2
you have an offer of arranged employment in Canada. The employment offer should be:
•
in writing,
•
indeterminate in duration, and
•
meet the arranged employment factor described in this guide.

and on page 14 it has the arranged employment factor mentioned above and also says that you may claim points if:

You are currently working in Canada in a job that is Human Resources and Skills Development Canada (HRSDC) confirmation exempt under an international agreement or a significant benefit category (e.g., intracompany transferee)
•
Your work permit is valid when you apply for a permanent resident visa and
•
Your employer has made an offer to give you a permanent job if your application is successful.
Note: Your work permit must be valid at the time your permanent resident visa is issued.

So, your work permit is valid and you have a job offer letter from your employer? Then you are good to go.
