Yes. You can apply for a change of status to an employment-based visa on form I-129. However, the application must be filed while you are still in legal status.

What will happen if I have an expired visa?

Immigration lawyer at The Law Office of Eric M. Mark
If you leave before you accrue 180 days of unlawful presence (time after visa expired) you will not be subject to any bans from the U.S. If you do not leave before then, you will be subject to the bars. If you are thinking of marrying your girlfriend and she is a citizen, you could do so and obtain a green card even though you overstayed your visa, but leaving the country may prevent this. There are several options and you should speak with a lawyer to make sure you understand. You should do so quickly as the clock is running.
