Better to actually start looking for a job than thinking if it'll be difficult.

No, it will not be relevant. However, a company may hire you for your programming experience in general.

First thing you should do is build a demonstrable expertise in Java. You could either opt for a certification and/or develop a personal portfolio of Java based projects. Then take those projects to your potential recruiters and tell them that you're desperate to make a switch to Java.

I'm quite sure that is the right way to get into your dream job.

Look for the job openings and the certifications, tools, technologies they ask for. Then go for relevant certification.

First things to understand - it's not how many different things you know. It's about how deeply do you know about Java. You should look for job openings in your location and see what technologies companies are hiring for. Then pick those technologies and build your skills-set.
