Yes, especially if you already have the resources of technique and musicianship from your classical training. Pluck more gently, and try a flatpick for melody (lead) and ostinato (riff) lines. And you can make more use of bending the string across the fretboard to gliss up to the next note on an electric.
Two of the best guitarists ever were self taught
Slash and Jimi Hendrix

Yes.
Classical guitar is way harder. You might have to get used to using a pick and the smaller neck, but after that it should be easy as pie.
