I was wondering , can you install a 200 amp ats for a whole house 22 kva on the inside of the dwelling of a single family house . there is no room on the outside next to the meter pan
 
Welcome to the forum.

Yes. Of course it must be service-rated, and must follow the usual "nearest point of entry" rules.

Also, in either case, the existing panel is rendered a sub-panel and must follow those rules.
 
On mine, there is a main breaker next to the meter, and then the ats is located in the garage next to the panel.
 
If the jurisdiction is under 2020 or later would 230.85 have a bearing ?
If you are altering the service (or new service) and need space for an outside disconnect seemingly you would have space for an ATS.
