Could I take 11 Blade Warlock Levels and 3 Eldritch Knight Levels and use the same weapon for both features? Thanks in advance!

Yes.

There is no benefit to having the Eldrich Knight weapon benefits when you have the superior Pact of the Blade benefits, however.

You can now summon your weapon as a bonus action

I have done Blade of the pact for a great sword and two javelins for my Eldritch Knight weapons before. This is a much more efficient use of class abilities.

Pact of the Blade allows you to summon whatever you want each summon, hence the action and not a bonus action.

Its not a terrible waste. You get other things, including some level 1 spells and other fighter features. I think Champion is a bit better choice for a 3 level fighter dip.

It does...unless you attune a real weapon as your pact blade at which point you summon that specific weapon. My EK/Bladelock had gotten a Great Sword of Sharpness and attuned that as his Pact Blade. His two EK weapons were both Javelins of Lightning he had made himself over the past year.
