I got approved for my deferred action application only ( not for the work permit yet ) can I apply for a social # or driver license?

Deferred action approval

I'm not sure if you can, but you can try. To get a SSN, you're going to need to show your EAD card for proof of residency I think. And to get a DL you need EAD for proof of residency as well and a SSN depending on where you're located. In California, those were the requirements.

Did you get an approval letter for Deferred action but not for a work permit? Have you checked online? I think you'd be the first person I see who's deferred action's case gets approved but not the work permit...

They didn't deny my work permit but it's still on initial review and yes I got the letter where it's says that I'm approved for two years and the day that it expires and everything.... I received my deferred action approval one week after my biometrics ( right now I'm on day 25 not counting weekends ) so that's making me kinda anxious to get my social and everything else ... I'm going to give it a try and go ask for a social >.< But it's so embarrassing :'''(

You're going to need the EAD in hand in order to apply for a Social Security Card. You can't apply for an SSN with just DACA approval.
