Hello Mirelis, 

I'm not sure I've understood the question, but I read it as:

You would like to change a Date field to be a Lookup Field.
- This is not possible, you would need to create a new field as a Lookup Field to the Custom object.

Hi Mirelis,

As per my understanding,  you cannot use case date field as lookup on custom object.
