More Visa query…Timeline for informing?

Visa Question, but maybe not so complex I need a lawyer nor so urgent…I’m thinking others have likely done this so checking:

Resident Work Visa: Instructor (work in high school).

Permission to Engage in Other activities: Humanities (work in an Eikaiwa).

Visa renewal will be in May 2024.

I want to quit the main job (high school) on November 1. The place is a hot mess. I will continue the Eikaiwa PT gig. They also said I can take on more hours as of January 1 (another teacher leaving).

Queries:

From what I see, if people lose/quit their job, they have up to 90 days to find a new job…

And I already have permission to teach PT @ Eikaiwa…

Can I just continue my PT at the Eikaiwa for now, taking some “mental break time” for November & December and then in December, go to immigration and turn in “Application to Change Status of Residence) to change to a main category of Humanities as of January 1?

\*\*\*I already pay my own health insurance, pension, resident tax. That is NOT handled through my workplace.

Its a bit of a word question but the TLDR is “Can I quit a job and wait a couple months to change main resident category while I continue to work PT at my side-category, which I do have permission for?”
