Not from within the UK. You'll have to return home and apply from there, assuming you have an approved Sponsor.

However, if I've understood your post correctly you appear to be considering the wrong category as Tier 2 doesn't permit self-employment.

Please don't send me PMs asking for immigration advice on posts that are on the open forum. If I haven't responded there, it's because I don't have the answer. I'm a moderator, not a legal professional.
