Here's the entry requirement:

Cambridge students are asked to achieve a score of 67% in part IIB of their tripos to be allowed onto the MPhil. Given that you take sufficient amount of econometrics modules, I don't see why you wouldn't be eligible to apply.

However, MPhil Economics at Cambridge is considered inferior to the equivalent programmes at the LSE and Oxford, so if your aim of studying at Cambridge is purely for the prestige, I urge you to reconsider....
