No, to apply GATE exam, it is mandatory to appear for BTech or BE in any of the engineering disciplines. So, if you are pursuing Diploma in civil engineering, then you need to complete a BTech or BE degree first in the relevant field. Direct Diploma entry is not applicable for the GATE.

Civil Engineering is both about fieldwork and design/desk jobs, depending on the specific career profile and the career stage that you're at. Some Civil Engineering jobs like Civil Design Engineer are more about office work, where you are involved in CAD software designs and blueprints for construction projects. On the other hand, job roles like Site Engineer or Construction Engineer are field-focused where you need to spend a major chunk of the time on construction sites overseeing progress and quality of work done for the project.
