I have a 2D graph both x and y axis; however the x and y are in inches and i want to convert them into centimeter. So the x and y axis range is from 0 to 18. I would like it to go from 0 to 45.72

Use the get and set functions to adjust the tick labels:
xt = get(gca, 'XTick');
set(gca, 'XTick', xt, 'XTickLabel',xt*2.54)
yt = get(gca, 'YTick');
set(gca, 'YTick', yt, 'YTickLabel',yt*2.54)
NOTE: I tested this on another plot. It works.
