No. Unfortunately, the Korean government does not permit foreigners to apply for work visas within Korea. In this case, you will have to leave Korea and make a trip to a Korean consulate or embassy in another country. Most people in this situation go to Japan to make a visa run at the Korean consulates in Fukuoka, Osaka, or Tokyo.
