I think you should learn some time management strategies. Such as:
1. Know how you spend your time
2. Set priorities
3. Use a planning tool
4. Get organized
5. Schedule your time appropriately
6. Delegate: Get Help from Others
7. Stop Procrastinating
8. Manage external time wasters

I’ve known some people, and they managed to do a PhD while working. They would usually come in half a day per week (in agreement with their company), and work at home in the evening for their PhD. You can also try this.
