Maybe I don't express the idea correctly, I mean if it is possible to change completely to another GUI [desktop enviroment}

You expressed your idea correctly. Simple answer is ''yes you can install other DEs and switch between them'' but with deepin things are more complicated. To install deepin one need repository with packeges providing necessary applications. We dont package deepin. Debian repo contains only small percentage of deepin apps. To install deepin DE you will need to compile whole desktop on your own, or find 3rd party repo with packeged compiled for proper debian version.
