If your intent is to make wine with alcohol use sugar. The sugar substitutes will not ferment into alcohol. Check your rules for diabetics and alcohol. As it is the alcohol is treated by the body as sugar or in a similar way.
Yeast needs sugar, but most of the sugar is turned into alcohol. Look for recipes to make dry wine.
Sugar free powder gives a funny taste to the wine.It also may not help in proper fermentation.
NO
You need the sugar to give the yeast something to turn into alcohol
