I think that last line should just be:

entrada_nombre = new Gtk.Entry()

You have already declared the variable in the scope of the
class itself. By declaring another variable of the same name
in the crea_dialogo method you have a new variable, but in 

the scope of only the method. Whether you use:
var entrada_nombre = new Gtk.Entry()
or
entrada_nombre:Gtk.Entry = new Gtk.Entry()

both are declaring a new variable because you are specifying 

the type, either explicitly or by inference.
