No. It would need to be evaluated as a masters degree for that.

There is no option to choose 1 year postgraduate diploma in the express entry form for canadian equivalent education. What do I choose in this case??

In total, your education is "two or more degrees or diplomas", since you have an evaluated degree and a diploma. For the diploma, when you list it individually, I believe it will be a "one-year program."
