No, your permit if you move with him will be a type of Relative's Permit called an Accompanying Spouse Permit. You may not work on this permit.

You cannot apply for a Life Partner Permit (also a type of Relative's Permit) because your boyfriend (you should say life partner anyway) is not a SA Permanent Resident or Citizen.
