I think, Yes they are similar, mainly because the Romans took Greek traditions and made it their own way of life. But, I disagree that they are Completely equal, mainly because...

1. The Roman gods were WAY more strict. They were more warlike than the Greek gods and were all about discipline, now I wouldnt say that the greeks werent strict, but they werent as strict as the romans.

2. The romans and greeks made their gods be the gods of what was important to them, for example, Hades is the god of the dead in greek mythology. But in roman mythology Pluto, the equal of Hades, was the god of riches and Jewels (Gems)
