WHM to Unmarried Partner

I'm currently in the UK on a Working Holiday Visa and would like to move onto the Unmarried Partner Visa. My partner is British, and we satisfy all the requirements. My question is: Can I apply for the UPV from within the UK, whilst still on the WHM? I'm geting conflicting answers. Many thanks for a...
