Yes, with a slight tweak...

'-p' means pretty-print, i.e. produce a human-readable format. mktag
supports the raw format. So you should invoke it like this:
$ git cat-file tag e619
which should produce something like:
object c0ae36fee730f7034b1f76c1490fe6f46f7ecad5
type commit
tag tag-test
tagger Anand Kumria <akum...@acm.org> 1351121552 +0100
tag-test
and is the format expected by mktag.
