Yes, you can join a firm on the basis of your passed papers as an ACCA student. But if you want to use your experience towards ICAEW training too then you should find internship at a firm which is also an ICAEW approved training firm. In this way you'll be able to use your 1 year towards both ACCA training & ICAEW too.
But there are some potential problems. You'll need a work permit to work in london based firm. If you donot have then a firm will have to sponsor you. It is quite common in the UK for ACCA students to work but its not quite common for firms to sponsor foreign students for work permit. There is a very little qouta for work permits for accountancy firms.
It is possible but quite difficult.
