No you cant. TDE now sources applications-tmenuedit.menu, not
applications-kmenuedit.

No. The update doesn't touch ~/.local/share/applications, and that is a
problem. The filenames of .desktop files remain with "kde" but in
applications-tmenuedit.menu they are referred with "tde". As i said you
have to either edit applications-tmenuedit.menu or rename files in
~/.local/share/applications.
