Insofar as you have acquired 10 continuous valid years, yes. B1 English and LIUK required.

If the principal applicant is granted
asylum or humanitarian protection and leave to enter or remain any spouse, civil partner,
unmarried or same-sex partner or minor child will be granted leave to enter or remain for the
same duration.

In order to settle as a refugee then the applicant must meet the requirement of 339R (click).

Regarding the English requirement do note that:

People applying in the following categories do not need to meet the KoLL requirement:

 people applying for indefinite leave to remain following five years residence in the UK
as a refugee
