From the account level, Electrum uses a non-hardened derivation. So the master private keys are not interchangeable between Bitcoin Core and Electrum. What can be done is dumping each key individually and then importing each key in Electrum. | |

You can dump your Master HD key. Go to the same console and type dumpwallet (filename) then get the xprv key at the top of the file.
