@Yugesh KC May I know what type of replication are you referring?

Do you want to Switch between types of replication(LRS, GRS ZRS)? Are you referring to object replication( blob or File share)
Please clarify if this question is about Azure File Sync or any other storage replication feature ?

Configure object replication for block blobs

Azure Storage replication: To maintain data availability and durability, Azure Storage creates and stores copies of data across multiple locations. This process is called storage replication. The goal is to provide redundancy to protect data against hardware failures, power or network outages

Object replication asynchronously copies block blobs between a source storage account and a destination account. Some scenarios supported by object replication include:

Note: There is no plan for append blob object replication.

Please let us know if you have any further queries. I’m happy to assist you further.

Thank you Sumarigo-MSFT for your answer.

I don't want to switch my replication, I want to have LRS replication

I want to replicate the source storage account of user A to destination storage account of user B.

@Yugesh KC In LRS 3 copies are stored in storage stamp in same region, Locally redundant storage (LRS) copies your data synchronously three times within a single physical location in the primary region.

The design what you are looking for isn't possible and storage account is not designed in this format
