Do you believe EMs can easily transition to a TPM role, if they were leading cross functional execution?

Yes. If you are willing to transition, its simplest if there is a role in your organization. I am assuming this question was about TPM = Program Managers rather than product managers.
If the question was about tech product managers, the focus should be on understanding the product and customers rather than execution.
