As your current ID address is a non-Apple one you can change it either to your main @icloud.com address or to another non-Apple address (as long as that isn't associated with another Apple ID or hasn't been for at least 30 days).

You cannot change it to an 'email alias' - an additional address that you've created.

For the process, please see Change your Apple ID - Apple Support
