If you played Bdim then that would just be staying in the key of C.
Bm has an F# so that would be straying out of the key of C. Although, then the chords would fit in the key of G.
However, others may know more than me so I'm happy to stand corrected and learn something.
edit I see @Brad answered just before me and he's someone that knows more about this stuff than me.
You can’t be in Dorian because there isn’t a C chord in E Dorian.
So I wanted to spice up the C to Em change.
My thinking of possible scale over each chord is
What are the Major Modes against a Major chord.
What are the Minor modes over a minor chord.
Yes I could just stay in the C Major scale but that would be a bit boring,

A to Dm
B to Em
E to Am
If I treat each chord as it's own key centre I have the following options (thinking CAGED)
C Major
C Lydian --> G Major
C Mixolydian --> F Major
Likewise over the B
B Major
B Lydian --> F# Major
B Mixolydian -> D# Major
Over the Em
Em Dorian --> D Major
Em Phrygian --> C Major
Em Aolian --> F# Major
These are the obvious choices ,obviously targeting the chord tones
Also try avoid thinking in scales. Even try not to think in terms of the palette of notes “allowed” in each chord. Try instead to think of beautiful tunes!
C Mix to B mix to E Dorian?
So southern rock to minor blues and back to southern Rock.
In a Statch like context C Lydian B Mix to E Phrygian?
