Brief Answer:
Yes, it's possible

Detailed Answer:
Dear Sir,

I have gone through your question and I understand your concerns but unfortunately, the most commonly used sweeteners in Diet Coke are aspartame, sucralose or acesulfame potassium,

All of these have diarrhea as a possible side effect.

I hope you find this helpful.
Feel free to ask further.
