Yes, you are eligible for Central Teacher Eligibility Test (CTET). There is no age restriction to apply to the CTET. So if you satisfy the other criteria then you can appear for CTET. The educational qualifications differ for each post like Primary Teacher, Elementary Teacher etc.

The aspirant can check the details in the website http://ctet.nic.in/ctetapp/eligibility.aspx

For the state government teacher posts you have to check the State Government Teacher Eligibility Test. Each state has different age limit, you have to check it in your state.
