Can I edit or delete a group expense after settlement?

Direct answer
Not always. A fully settled expense or a settled group is locked to protect the settlement record. Deletion is also blocked when an expense has multiple settlement records.
For an unsettled expense, editing depends on group permissions. Owners/admins can edit; ordinary members can edit only when the group's Allow members to edit expenses setting permits it. Swipe-to-delete is available only to the expense creator when all deletion conditions pass.
