Most Dryers do not use gas nowadays, so that question might not be answered; but most dryers now run on water and electricity.

Gas line & a 110 volt outlet both preferably within 36`` of the dryers location. And a vent to outdoors.

Generally speaking - yes. It depends on the purchase cost of the dryer, frequency of use and whether the cost of installing gas service has to be factored in.

The only practical way to do that would be to sell the electric clothes dryer and use the proceeds toward purchase of a gas dryer.

If you mean converting the building, then you would need to have natural gas plumbing installed, and you would need an outlet that matches the voltage of the new dryer.
