Can iPartition work on the same physical disk from which the system has booted?

No. Due to the way that the IOKit works, it is not possible to manipulate the boot disk to the extent that iPartition would need to. Like most other Mac OS utility software, you will require another Mac—so that you can use FireWire target-disk mode—or another boot disk of some description.
