    I seem to have multiple collations in my wordpress database.
    Some tables have collation latin1_swedish_ci and others are in utf8_general_ci.

    Is this normal or wrong ? And if it is wrong, Is there a way to modify this ?

    It can be normal. Depends on what upgrade processes your database went through.

    You can fix it, but it’s not as simple as just changing the collation. Odd characters stored using the wrong character set won’t get corrected.

    Generally, though, you don’t have to fix it. Let it be. If you’re not getting weird character set issues, then it’s fine. Doesn’t usually make any difference.
