No... It's full of all sorts of crazy chemicals to sweeten and color it. Surely you're doing a water fast to get rid of all that artificial processed crap in your body.
Chemicals like aspertime and sodium benzoate (E211) which was found to break down mitochondrial DNA in living yeast cells. It has also been linked to hyperactive behavior and decreased intelligence in children. Sodium benzoate has already been banned in Europe, but US still uses it in their diet coke.
I'm sure it's fine in moderation, but it's not something you want to put into your body during a fast meant to cleanse the body.

Diet Coke is poison, PERIOD.
IF you're looking for some energy, do a fruit juice fast instead. I switched to that a long time ago, and never regretted it. Go with like the DOLE brand multi-fruit juics. They have like 2 whole servings in every 8 ounces or something.

hun please please stay away NutraSweet & aspartame it is horribly toxic. when it first came out on the market my mom started buying it exclusively it was in everything sweet that she got well i started getting migraines i was 8yrs old then i started getting hives and really really sick the Dr's couldn't figure what was wrong i was having terrible bloody noses,migraines, hives, blackouts, mood swings and at one point the Dr's thought i might have spinal meningitis did a spinal tap sent me home we ran out of pop and Popsicles and i started getting better then when giving pop again had a bloody nose so mom took me off it completely i got better then a year later got a autoimmune disease and almost died again. im in remission now but my overall health never recovered i honestly don't understand how aspartame is even legal but we all know that the FDA can and has been bought off before and unfortunately probably will again. Aspartame has also been shown to cause cancer and is an excitotoxin so please stay away from it at all costs.

Drinking diet coke and then going and doing something that is going to be physically exhausting and very hot (sweating, raising your body temp, etc) will cause you to die. The Nutrisweet is already bad for you, and whenever its heated up it turns into poison for the body. Maybe not the first time, of course, cause my dad is a big fat ass who does construction and washes it down with diet coke. However, there is a chance, and the soda will shorten your lifespan in any case, even if it doesn't kill you.
You're better off just not drinking diet coke ever again. All of that shit is just terrible.
