You can switch to Tier 4 visa inside UK. But it depends on how many years in total have you studied in UK.

If you are planning to study 3 more years then I don't think any Masters course is for three years. Generally Masters degree is for 1-2 years.

You can do PhD to get 3 years visa and complete your 10 years.

Please keep in mind that you cann't study more than 8 years in total here in UK.

You can do any masters which is different than your previous masters degree. Also, your institute must justify in CAS letter that how this new course is different and will benefit you.
