Not sure why you need this, but DPDK won't do for you.

The process type is decided once at DPDK init, and that is something
that affects how your program behaves after.
Switching type while running would break assumptions in the DPDK
drivers and libraries.

One thing that comes to mind, is that you could try to call
rte_eal_cleanup() and call rte_eal_init() again.
This is probably something that is not tested (so I'd expect issues,
maybe leaks etc..).

But then, you probably want to restart your process entirely.
