XP in Diff Language

Can i convert my existing version of XP Pro into other language based ?
like Japanese ?

Possibly but not likely.
First you need Windows XP Professional in English.
Then you need the Multilingual User Interface, which has limited
availability:

More than likely if you want Windows XP in a different language, you
need to buy it in the desired language.

No. You cannot upgrade or convert from one language version of the
OS to another, so you'll have to purchase and use the full version of
WinXP (in whatever language you want) to perform a clean installation.
