in powerpoint, you can convert a text into a picture by copying the text and
paste it as a picture. Is there a way to convert the picture back to text
file?

Not an easy one. You could right-click and save it as a TIF image. Then open
that in Microsoft Office Document Imaging and let the OCR try to read it.
(For short texts I think it is quicker to re-type ...)

It depends on the kind of picture you're talking about.

If it's an EMF or WMF, you can ungroup it and get to the text. If it's a
bitmap -- GIF, TIF(F), JPG, PNG, etc., then what the others said....
