We know that Ewiger Landfriede disables internal HRE wars. What happens if you don't let the electors to change their religions ? No religious war maybe ? Is there any other way to prevent religious war ?
Is there a way to prevent religious war without reforming HRE

Yes. Exactly that way. If you are fast enough in killing the reformation centers and everyone who dares to convert, you can prevent the league war.
Easiest as Austria, eating snakes through HRE since start to border as many princes as possible and attack asap.

crush the reformation where it spawns, some of my games im the only protestant and nobody even converted to reformed ever
landfriede only disables member directly dowing eachother, there can be still plenty of spanking around inside there via alliances

also you can destroy hre too. I know its not what you intent to do but thats another way 
As long as no ELECTOR turns Protestant, the Leagues will not form.
So you could always kill all Electors, or Dismantle the HRE, or Stomp out the Reformation immediately- but they can still turn Protestant.

Nope, it should be the one after Ewiger Landfriede which fixes who's the emperor.
That period is the most vulnerable time for the emperor.....
And to prevent it happen, kill any elector that turned/will likely turn protestant, meanwhile destroy all religious centres. It is a bit hard to do it if you are not the emperor since you can't no cb as you please.

I would disagree with that. Landfriede prevents an HRE member from attacking another, so in the likely case where an elector is the leader of the protestant league they can't start the war.
what if someone like sweden or denmark becomes leader and entire hre join because you were unable to destroy centers since you cant dow anyone in hre

Which is why you don't pass Landfreide until after you've done that. It's what I've always done.
If the Protestant League is too weak to declare war for 30 years they surrender to the Emperor. With recent weak reformations it happens quite often.
This is the best way sadly just be as powerful as possible and hope that the plc and Spain are powerful enough (they reliably join the catholic league) but if the unholy trinity of Russia France and the ottomans join your probably stuck with an unwinnable league war.
But as others have said the way you blitz the hre is partially through enforcing religion on Protestants that have centers of reformation.
You want to have as much territory doting the the hre as possible and probably religious ideas
