Only from your home country, and if your partner is studying a level 7 degree of more than 12 months duration at an approved HEI.

I was advised by a solicitor that I can apply for dependent visa from UK. So she was wrong?

319C (h)lists those who can apply for leave to remain (ie apply from inside the UK) tier 4 migrants are not listed here so they cannot apply from inside the UK and need to apply from outside instead.
