Gas dryers are often cheaper to purchase than electric dryers. Also, a home may only have a gas hook-up available. In the past, gas dryers were much more popular than electric, and many households havent upgraded yet.
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. Even if it was possible to convert the dryer the cost would be prohibitive versus a new 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.
Converting a gas dryer to an electric dryer is not recommended and can be dangerous. It is best to purchase a new electric dryer instead of attempting to convert a gas dryer.

Another possibility is a malfunctioning cycling thermostat or gas valve that needs to be replaced. It is recommended to have a professional technician inspect and repair the dryer to ensure safe operation.
