TLDR : Answer Summary
It is possible to change a 60-day tourist visa to an educational visa in Thailand, but you will need to consult with the school or gym where you intend to train. They will guide you on the requirements and whether they can support your visa change, as it involves considerable paperwork and may depend on the immigration office's policies.

You need to ask your school or gym. They are the ones who will tell you if it's possible or not. It requires a lot of paperwork so they might not want to support it. Also the immigration office they use might not allow it. You need to check with them.

 if your school or gym supports it and if the immigration office they use allows it. The only way to know is ASK YOUR SCHOOL
