If your wife is in UK as a dependent then she will not be able to switch to Tier 2 (General). She will have to apply for EC from home country.

1. I agree with both answers as dependents can not switch visas within UK they have to leave the UK and apply from Home country.
2. PSW from CCL, u got to be careful as well.
