Assurance to Advisory Switch before Start Date

I accepted an offer with a big four firm last semester for assurance, but I'm looking to switch into advisory with the same firm instead. I would start either in July or August for the original role. To be honest I applied for the wrong position and feel like an idiot for not letting them know earlier. Is it possible to request an internal transfer before I would start, or just I keep the assurance position? It's not a bad job either way, just not something that is as interesting to me personally as advisory.
