Can I switch H4 to H1 if 2 years still left on H1B Visa

I am currently working with employer A and my current I-94 will expire in 3 weeks. My current employer A is not filing for an extension.

If I don't find a new employer before I-94 expires, my plan is to switch to H4 before that (since my spouse has H1B)

 

I have 2 years left on my H1B ( per 6 year limit)

 

Can I move back from H4 to H1B if I find an employer later ?

Yes, you can. Your new employer has to file for a change of status later.
