Do they make an 11' 2x4?
No.
Not even close.
Ten foot ceilings are fine unless you are spending seven figures or more and/or you are building with a spectacular outside view (beach, mountains, etc.). The upgrade from ten foot to twelve foot ceilings greatly complicate (spelled: "cost much more") the building process. Get your framer, sheetrock contractor, trim carpenter and painter all to submit pricing both ways (10' versus 12') You can put in an outdoor kitchen for the difference. And every month when the power bill arrives, you have heated/cooled 1/6 less cubic footage with the 10' option.
Good luck.
