Is there such a thing as a 240V switch because you need to run a dryer and cooktop-stove and only have one 240V line in your old condo building?

All 220 volt appliances must be on a dedicated circuit. The dryer will need to be on one circuit and the stove on another. You will need to run a dedicated wire from the fuse panel to the appliance you want to add, with a dedicated breaker. Anything else is a violation of code and a fire hazard. The larger question is whether the fuse/breaker panel even has enough capacity to support both appliances running simultaneously. A stove and a dryer each draw a lot of power. Combined, they could overload an old system. You may need to rewire the panel all the way back to where the building connects to the power company. Maybe your condo neighbors would all like to have their power panels rewired and upgraded at the same time!

How do you convert a 4 plate stove which uses a circuit breaker to a wall plug?

You still need a circuit breaker. From your question it appears your stove is hardwired to the panel. It is perfectly acceptable to connect it to a suitably specified outlet and plug for the voltage and amperes for the stove. Basically you would turn off the breaker, install an outlet on the floor or wall so as not to interfere with stove. You can buy cords with the proper plugs and mating receptacles in most any hardware store. For an electric stove with an oven you are usually talking about a 50A breaker and the corresponding outlet and plug. This can be dangerous and if you are not sure of what you are doing an electrician is highly recommended.
