As Michael and Thomas already said transparency kind of depends on the 
context. If you want to look through your diagram window to your desktop 
that's even not possible with the current development version, which 
otherwise has much improved transparency support.

But if you want to export your diagram with a transparent background that's 
already possible with Dia 0.97.x, if you choose the right format. There is 
for example "Cairo PNG (with alpha)". Also the vector format filters (SVG, 
WMF, WPG, etc. pp.) usually don't draw the background.

If you want something else, please be more specific.
See also https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=591525#c16 about the 
reason to exclude transparency from the diagram background color.
