I have four different extensions with different languages with texts on it, I use dropdown on top placeholder to switch between different sites. However, when I switch from English to Polish I still see the English Text in Polish site.

I was wondering how to clear cache when selecting the item from dropdown or make a hard refresh

You can have the browser reload by using window.location.reload().

Clearing the cache, however, is only possible in Firefox where window.location.reload(true) is supported.

More Details here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Location/reload

Additionally, there is increasing support for the Clear-Site-Data header that might be worth investigating. Not sure it's applicable in this case, however.
