ASIC Miner

No. You would need an X11 ASIC which do not exist at this time, ASIC's are algorithm specific only ones for sha-256 and scrypt have been developed thus far.
 
Cant I just change the algorithm from sha-256 to x11 ?

No, ASIC's don't work like that, ASIC is short for Application Specific Integrated Circuit the reason it's so fast is the hardware was purpose built for sha-256 it literally cannot do ANYTHING else. I mean yes there are some scrypt + sha-256 ones but those don't really "switch" anything they are just two ASIC's bundled into one unit.
