I want to write data into an external EEPROM from my computer using USBtinyISP or Pocket AVR programmer. Is it possible to do that? I know they can be used to program microcontrollers, but not sure if I can use them to program EEPROM.
If they can't, any suggestions?

Unfortunately they can't; the programmers contain firmware that is specific to programming AVR microcontrollers. You will need to either reprogram them to "talk" EEPROM instead of AVR, or use a separate EEPROM programmer.
