TLDR : Answer Summary
To convert from an education visa to a retirement visa in Phuket, you cannot directly change the purpose of an issued visa. You will have to cancel or let your current education visa run out before applying for a new retirement visa based on your age. It's advised to visit your local Immigration Office with your passport to inquire about possible options and specific requirements.
