    Are you talking about the java SE String class? Look at the API doc for how to use the methods that you are asking about. If you have any questions about the doc, copy the text here and ask your questions about it.

    Strings, which are widely used in Java programming, are a sequence of characters. In Java programming language, strings are treated as objects. The Java platform provides the String class to create and manipulate strings.

    I'm not quite sure I understand your question but to me it looks like you're asking if we can modify a String to its lowercase or uppercase variant in which case the answer is yes:

    	public class UpperAndLower {
     
    		public static void main(String[] args) {
    			String lower = "LowEr";
    			String upper = "uPPeR";
    			System.out.println(lower.toLowerCase() + " - " + upper.toUpperCase());
    		}
     
    	}
