Yes you can put anything in your case statement up to the break

C#

switch(abc)
{
    case "a" :
        if (something)
        {
        }
        else
        {
        }
    break;
}

Yes certainly you can do this. Try as below code.

C#

string abc = "a";
string output = string.Empty;

switch(abc)
{
    case "a":
        if (1 == 1) //some sample condition
        {
            output = "a";
        }
        break;
    case "b":
        if (1 == 1) //some sample condition
        {
            output = "b";
        }
        break;
}

Yes we can have if statement inside switch, try this

C#

switch (number.ToString().Length)
    {
        case 3:
            ans += string.Format("{0} hundred and ", numbers[number / 100]);
        case 2:
            int t = (number / 10) % 10;
            if (t == 1)
            {
                ans += teens[number % 10];
                break;
            }
            else if (t > 1)
             {
                ans += teens[t];
                break;
             }
        case 1:
            int o = number % 10;
            ans += numbers[o];

            break;
        default:
            throw new ArgumentException("number");
    }
