You may apply if you qualify with earnings in 12 months (of the 15 months window) preceding the application. Since you can switch (apply from within the UK), the interim limit / cap does not apply to you.

The post you are referring to is from Tier 4 to Tier 1 PSW. You want to go to Tier 1 General. See the link provided by sushdmeta.

Bottom line: You are allowed to switch from Tier 4 dependent to Tier 1 General.
