I want to apply for a Mexican visa from within the United Arab Emirates, but I am not a UAE citizen and I don't want to return to my home country to apply for one. I am in Dubai.
Is it possible for me to apply for a Mexican visa from within the UAE?

As long as you can find the Mexican embassy in UAE, you will be able to apply for a visa. You will have to show that you are legally allowed in UAE then you shouldn't have a problem.
