No, not on a visitor visa.

No, you can't switch in-country for a visit visa.

You can only work if you can find a licensed sponsor to employ you on a T1G visa - which usually means highly educated or very specialist and then you can only apply from your country of residence.

It could be a different story if you have an EEA partner & come to UK with your EEA sponsor.
