Can we apply work permit on basis of visitor permit when pr express entry file is in process??

Unfortunately, no. Neither a visitor's permit, nor a PR application by itself provide eligibility for a work permit.
 
If your PR file is in process and if you have your AOR generated then you can apply for Bridging Open Work Permit (BOWP).

There is a separate thread on process for BOWP. you can check

This will be applicable only if the applicants work permit is expired or getting expired. Not for visitor visa applicants

No, the OP is on a visitors permit. BOWP requires a valid work permit a the time the BOWP application is submitted. The OP is not eligible for a BOWP.
 
One of my friend's friend applied bowp on visitor permit and it got approved.. i donno how.

Sometimes mistakes happen in our favour : ) Can't count on that, though.

No way. May there would have been a different reason for his work permit.
