No - that's not how it works. You have to apply for the work permit before you travel to Canada. In order to apply for a work permit you need a full time job offer from an employer and also an approved LMIA.

If an agency is trying to tell you that the work permit is something the company obtains after you arrive in Canada, then you are being scammed. Hope you haven't paid them any money yet.
