1. No you can not as the future earnings get points from the employer u work for.

Tier2 EARNINGS POINTS can be claimed from only 1 Employer who issues you with CoS...

You might also be in breach of immigration laws by working as self-employed while on Tier 1 (PSW).

Tier 1 (PSW) policy guidance states:

Successful applicants will be free to seek employment without having a sponsor for the duration of their Tier 1 (Post-Study Work) leave.

On the other hand, Tier 1 (G) policy guidance clearly states:

Successful applicants will be free to seek employment without having a sponsor or to take up self-employment/business opportunities in the UK.

Have you checked with UKBA if you're allowed to be self-employed on Tier 1 (PSW)?? If not, suggest that you do.
