Participating in the DV lottery is not starting the immigration process. No effect.

If you are eligible for  both visa categories there is not a problem. Will the USCIS know about both? Yep !

Neither application will prejudice the other just because you have more than one application in process..your fiancé relationship will always be assessed to ensure it is a bonafide relationship and  not for immigration  purposes only .... you will be asked about many things

There is a 0% chance that the officer will ask you if you have participated in DV lottery. Even in case they ask, say yes and it will have no impact on your K1.
