    Not enough information...

    There are some oil fired boilers which are also certified by their manufacturers for installation of gas burners.  Not all, by any means.  So to answer the first part of the question -- it depends.  What boiler do you have?



    It is also important to know -- are you thinking natural gas, or LP?



    As to cost -- first place, we don't talk cost on the Wall.  Which should be obvious in this instance -- too many variables.  How big is the boiler?  What sort of burners are available?  Is your exhaust flue the correct type?  Is it in good enough condition?  Is it big enough?  Is natural gas already connected to the structure?  Is the feed for it big enough?  And so on...
