Hiya,

Is it legaly possible?
Please let me know the expert advice.

You cannot switch from T2 ICT Short Term Staff to Tier 2 General in-country. You will have to leave the UK, wait 12 months until your present leave expires or is curtailed (the cooling-off period) and then apply for T2G entry clearance from abroad once you have been assigned a CoS.
