No, a PBS dependent (from any Tier) cannot switch in another Tier without the Main Immigrant.

UKBA PBS Guidance said:
Dependants may not switch into any category of the points-based system in their own right. If your dependants later want to be in the United Kingdom under the points-based system in their own right, they will have to leave the United Kingdom and apply for entry clearance (permission to enter the United Kingdom).
