Hi @Hyder Patel

Welcome to Q&A forum ~

• Sorry, issues of changing or purchansing Microsoft 365 subscription plans are not supported on Q&A forum at current time. Thanks for your understanding.
• If you want to know how to upgrade the plan and related issues, please refer to "Upgrade or change to a different Microsoft 365 for business plan".

This article also lists some scenarios that you can not change the plan and the corresponding solutions.

• If you need more help on advice on products or licensing solutions, you need to contact your Licensing Solution Partner directlty. For more, please refer to "Support Provided by Licensing Solution Partners".

can we use standalone MS Office licnese application ( office 2019 ) and office E1 office on same machine.

According to the following image, Office 365 E1 does not include Office client apps, this plan includes Office for the web. For more details of different plans, you may checkout the link "Service availability within each Microsoft 365 and Office 365 plan".

So you can use Office 2019 apps and Office 365 E1 on the same machine.

Hope the information could be helpful to you.
