Buy and register a car in Quebec with Ontario Drivers License?

So I moved to Toronto from UK. I Was there as a resident and got a G2 drivers license but did not buy a car. Now I got a job in Montreal and I would like to buy a car in Montreal. I have an appointment to go change my license to a Quebec one next month. But I need a car to go to work now! I have a Montreal address now. But my address on my Ontario drivers license is obviously from Toronto...

So here is the question,Can I Buy and register a car in Quebec with Ontario Drivers License before changing it to a Quebec one??

Thanks Guys, Appreciate any comments.

well, in Ontario, you need an Ontario drivers lic and your vehicle has to be registered in Ontario in order to purchase Ontario auto insurance.

i bought a used car with my bc license with no hassle 2 monthes ago! Planning to change my license to QC license due to insurance issues tho next week (I was able to get insurance, but they cannot access my previous insurance record for discounts, need a QC license... not sure if this applies to all insurance companies)
