I am in EST Timezone and I work during the business hours. I am trying to practice trading using IB's Trading Workstation. I have Trading Workstation installed on my machine and I've a practice account. The challenge that I am going through is that I can't experience market buy/sell orders outside market hours. Do we have asset classes similar to stock market that I can practice buy/sell trades outside business hours?

There's nothing on the US equity markets that I know of that consistently trades with sufficient liquidity during after hours. TD Ameritrade offers a backtesting simulator that allows you to go back in time and trade going forward. I don't know what it takes to access it (free?) but it might suit your needs.
