Are you talking about a diesel electric with a big battery to help power a truck up a hill? If no battery all the power is coming from the diesel engine and the electric generator and motors don't serve much advantage over a 10 speed transmission.
Yes, with a battery. Otherwise, there would be no regenerative braking which would substantially increase the efficiency.
