Yes, you are eligible to apply for B.E or B.Tech in Electrical Engineering after completing Diploma in a Mechanical engineering course. Those who completed their three-year Diploma in Mechanical/Electrical from a recognized Polytechnic or its equivalent are eligible to apply. Being Diploma student you can join in in B.Tech or B.E course through lateral entry. It means you can directly join in 2nd B.Tech course. For that, you need to appear and qualify in the Lateral entry entrance exam conducted by the respective university.

I am sorry to say that you cannot opt for the B.Tech/B.E degree course in Electrical Engineering after the completion of Diploma course in Mechanical Engineering.
Since, you have done your Diploma in Mechanical Engineering, you can opt for B.E/ B.Tech degree course in the same.
Candidates those who have completed their Diploma course in the relevant field from a recognized University scoring a minimum of 50% of marks in it are eligible to opt for the B.Tech or B.E degree course in the same through lateral entry process.
