There’s already an existing suggestion thread discussing an option for Plex to support multiple video tracks within the same file and making each selectable. I recommend you comment/vote in that thread in order to help us avoid distracting or cannibalizing votes.

> It would be great if PLEX could let me choose one video track from multiple tracks in one file. For example I have MKV file with 2D video, 3D video and audio tracks in couple languages. Of course, I could have two files, one for 2D and another for 3D. But both of them need to contain the same audio tracks. The feature to switch video track could reduce disk usage a lot.

I’ll therefore close this thread as a duplicate.
