If enough pressure or suction is built up in the bottle, then the egg on the lid will be sucked in.
You didnt have much information to go on but this is a start i hope

You didn't give much information to answer this question.
You must create a vacuum inside the bottle after you have placed the egg on top.
Here is one example of how this may be done.
1. Use a glass bottle.
2. Put about 2-3 tbsp of HOT water inside the bottle and let it sit for 20 seconds. (or you could put in cold water and then heat it in the microwave)
3. Put the egg on top.
As the water cools inside the bottle the water vapor will condense and create a vacuum on the inside of the bottle. The suction will pull the egg inside.
Be careful not to burn yourself, good luck.

If the air pressure is lower in the bottle than the outside, then the egg should be forced into the bottle by the difference in air pressure.
(There is no such thing as "suction" in science - it is a difference in air pressure which forces the materials to move from one place to another.)
