Hi there!
Is there a way to combine Gunslinger with the debuffing of a witch? Let me explain better: i mean as a Gunslinger is there a way of using Witch spells while you shoot?

Not really. The closest you'll get is with 1 level of Spellslinger Wizard and then multiclassing into Witch, but only spells that are ranged touch, ray, cone, or line effects are compatible with the arcane gun so this combo doesn't synergize well with the Witch spell list.
If you want strong attacks through your gun then the Gunslinger/Magus multiclass combo isn't bad, although there's no way to get witch spells on it. The Hexcrafter archetype is compatible with the Eldritch Archer archetype (which works with guns) so you can at least get some witch flavor.
I looked for a combo like this a while ago and I couldn't find anything quite satisfying enough. The Spellslinger mentioned is about as close as you can get.
Deadeye Hexer, while from a 3PP is exactly what you are looking for.
Hopefully you have the opportunity to use it sometime.
Trench Fighter 3/ Strength Patron Witch 5/ Eldritch Knight 2 (with Prestigious Spellcaster); Magical Knack and Wayang Spellhunter: Ill Omen Traits; Quicken Spell. Cast Ill Omen as a level 4 swift-action spell while shooting a firearm with Divine Favor buff and Trench Fighter abilities; this is actually quite strong. That's about as good as it gets for a combo that lets you shoot and hex at the same time, as far as I can think of. Trench Fighter is kind of an obscure Archetype though...
If you're looking to be able to use Witch spells and shoot a gun, but not necessarily at the exact same time, then the same multiclass thing works as well.
The main thing is that, typically, you need enough levels in a gun class to get DEX-to-damage with firearms - Trench Fighter 3 is the quickest way, since most gun classes grant it at 5. Weapon Master Fighter 4 can also grant enough of a bonus to be worthwhile, since you can get almost as much as a DEX bonus out of Weapon Training, Gloves of Dueling and Weapon Specialization. Even just Weapon Master 3 and Strength Patron Witch can put out pretty good firearm damage with their buffs combined, if you can't use Trench Fighter.
