Yes you can.

For Tier 2 general you need new certificate of sponsor-ship from your new company and then need to restamp new Tier 2 visa.

For Tier 1 visa you can apply directly with all the necessary documents if you qualify as per point based systems.

If you search the forum then you will find threads for it.

Transfer?

You may apply (afresh) for a new Tier 2 (General) visa based on a new Certificate of Sponsorship from a new compnay or you may apply (afresh) for Tier 1 (General) if you qualify for it.
