It all depends on how you arrived in the U.S. and what is your present status.

No, you can't - unless you are a single/unmarried child under 21 and your mother is a US citizen. Only limited categories of people are eligible for apply for adjustment of status when they have become "illegal" or "out-of-status". I suggest, you consult a lawyer before filing anything with the DHS or DOS.
