I live in zone three in the us and didnt plants many bean seeds at the beginning of the season because last year i planted way to many seeds and didnt get many beans plus these are in pots. so this year i tries to plant less to get more but that didnt work out so well so i was wondering if i could start some more now and get some beans by late september early october

Not sure what 'zone three' really means in terms of climate, but if it's anything like the central French climate, you should have no problems. The limiting factor will be the date of the first frosts.
Dwarf beans will succeed but not climbing ones. Use an 'early' variety that grows quickly. With day length decreasing now, they should develop much more quickly than in spring anyway.
I always sow more French beans in early August for a fall crop.
