Quiet simply, you can't change it to a MobileMe email, since the creation of a MobileMe account creates a corresponding iTunes account, so if you try to change the email of an existing iTunes account to a MobileMe address it wont let you since an account with that email already exists.
 
If you're looking to connect or merge those accounts, I would check with iTunes Store support, but chances are they will not be able to transfer purchases from one account to another. Make sure you choose the right sub-topic (iTunes Store Account and Billing->Edit Account information) and then the Email Us option.
