You cannot do that while staying in Mauritius. You will have to leave the country and re-enter on a business visa.

If you are applying for a work permit, you are not allowed to stay in the country while the application is being processed. You have to wait the outcome before travelling to the country.

If you are applying for BOI Occupation Permit, then you can be in the country but strictly on a business visa.
