Is It Correct To Assume
Is correct to assume that one who wants to be an 18A has one chance and is there a possiblity to be a 37A and a 18A, thank you for your time.

It is never correct to assume anything...
Now that PSYOP is a branch of its own, I doubt that one can be an 18/37...in the day, I was an 18/39 (before PSYOP was a branch)...at one time, I was an 18/35 (before SF was a branch) but that was short-lived as 35 was part of MI branch and SF was still branch immaterial...generally, the Army frowns on officers being owned by two branches...

OB5:
Well, so far, you have asked about being an 18B, an 18X, an 18A, and a 37A.
Don't ask again till you have signed a contract, and decided what you want to be when you grow up.
Frankly, you have a hard row ahead of you just getting to SFAS.

With all due respect sir, im an enlisted soldier already, im preparing for my first deployment, and I know after I will have a few options that will be available to me such as army green 2 gold ADO, reclassing, or going to selection. Thats why i asked about 18A and 18B, seeing that I might be able to take one of those paths later on, sorry if i took up your time with a novice question.

We can only go by your posts - and your profile. In your six posts so far you have not mentioned your military status.
Take care before FTFSI finds it's way to your doorstep.
Pete
Edited to add - of the six posts the one above was the first to mention your military status.
