Hello,
you can't change the order in which gnuplot prints the axes. 
It follows the mathematicla rule of usual 3-d-coordinates: 
the vector of the z-axis is a result of the vector product 
of x and y. 

You may change the way that gnuplot reads your data or your 
mathematical expressions. If you are plotting 
3D-Datapoints, you may use the keyword "using" to tell 
gnuplot, that you would like to have the y-coordinate in 
your dataset plotted over the z-axis of gnuplots output. 
See "help using" for more information.
If you are plotting mathematical expressions, the simplest 
way to get your desired result is to make a coordinate 
transformation as described by linear algebra.
