Hey everyone, now I'm using this mechanical keyboard, but it's not hot swappable. I want to replace my switchs but the only switchs available in my country is redragon a113 but it's labeled as hot swappable switches.

I'm unsure if I can use these switchs , can anyone help me?

If your keyboard does not have hot swappable switches then no, you cannot use hot swappable switches on it without tearing it apart and converting it to be hot swappable which is a major pain in the ass and takes a ton of solder work, and is most likely not worth doing over just buying a new board. You're better off buying a hot swappable keyboard either with the switches you want or separately so you can add them. If I were in this situation I would just order a keyboard that comes with the switches I want already pre-installed.
