By changing the magnetic field can we generate electric field in a vacuum ?

By the Faradays law of EMI if the magnetic field associated with a coil changes, current is induced in that coil

So if we change magnetic field in vacuum will a current be generated in a vacuum?

An electric field in a region where there are no mobile charged particles (a vacuum) will mean that there will be no moving charged particles (no electric current flowing).

You are confusing "field" and "current".

A variable magnetic field in vacuum will indeed induce an electric field.

In the absence of any particle in vacuum this field will have noting to act on. Therefore there will be no electric current.
