Its an interchangeable engine, so unless that's something that has slipped by me throughout the years of in-depth research than yes they are. And the j30 is a car and the VG30 is an engine which is found in the j30 (the car). I mean I don't even know what you want me to say there.

EDIT: Just checked to make sure, yes exactly the same part numbers for all internals.
