Simple answer is NO! They've just changed the visa regulations, visit visas can no longer be transferred to work permits/residence visas. You must go back to your home country while this process is under way and come into the UAE once the visa is ready.

a month ago I arrived in D and after a week landed on a full time job in a contracting LLC. I had 60 days visit visa issued on the entry and now the company, while issuing me the work visa, will pay that visa amendmend fee -500Dhs- so that I will not have to re enter.
