Applying for J-FIND Visa Before Coming vs In Japan, While on Tourist Visa

Wanting to move to Japan mid-October and I'm trying to nail down the best way to go about acquiring the J-FIND visa – it's hard for me to find confirmation but it seems that it's possible to come into the country on a tourist visa, apply for a COE and then use that COE to change my status from tourist to J-FIND without returning to the US – is that correct?

Thank you!
