You are talking about 3 different things here.
Anyone can practice witchcraft but, keep in mind that there are many variants on this. If you are talking about one of the variants that has a religious connotation such as Wicca or Ifa...then there would be a conflict. Otherwise there is no conflict other than any issues your church may have.
Being gay has nothing to do with practicing witchcraft. It has nothing to do with being Christian (in my opinion) however most Christian churches do not accept homosexuality as being in line with their dogma. You really should check out the Unitarian Universalists.
If you are interested in a witchcraft tradition that is specifically for gay or bi men and women, check out the Minoan Brotherhood or Minoan Sisterhood.

I practice witchcraft and I have no idea what gay witchcraft is? There are christian witches. Most churches are probably unaware of what the person does. But a christian witch casts spells by using Christian ideology. The use of Jesus as God and Mary as Goddess. Invoking saints or angels in practice is christian based magic.

Unitarian Universalists
I'd like to also point out practicing witchcraft does not mean one is a "devil worshipper" one has to actually worship the devil to be a devil worshipper and last time I checked the devil, or any devil, wasn't in my pantheon.
Also can I ask you not say you wish to practice gay witchcraft? since witchcraft is not gay or affiliated with being gay. For correctness, try saying you are a gay individual practicing witchcraft who wants to remain Christian, as odd of a statement that is, it is a bit more tolerable in the English language.

Don't see why not. Many Christians practice witchcraft, especially in places like Europe where both things evolved together. Many Christians are also gay.
Technically, I think, all you need to do is to believe that Christ is the son of God who died for your sins and was resurrected. All the other stuff varies.
On this site, you enter your religious beliefs, and it matches you with different religions.

No.
This link: http://usminc.org/rosicrucians.html lists all the Bible verses that condemn occult practices (gay witchcraft, or otherwise), even though it's about Rosicrucians, the Bible verses still apply. Homosexuality is still a sin, and if you want to be a Christian, you would have to live a celebate life if you do not think you could overcome it.

I'm a gay female and i still regard myself a Christian. i attend Church every Sunday i can. What you need to remember is the Bible is open to your own interpretation. The bible is how you read it not someone else. The Churches Reverend is there to offer his interpretation to you.

All churches should accept you as a person but those kind of practices have no place in the body of Christ. Any good Bible believing Church should be able to pray with you for deliverance from both of these spirits.
