No, they are not the same.
Similes is a figure of speech that indirectly compares two unlike things by employing the words "like", "as", or "than" (more predominantly the former two).
Analogies are a cognitive process of transferring information or meaning from a particular subject (the analogue or source) to another particular subject (the target), and a linguistic expression corresponding to such a process.

Analogies compare relationships between things, while similes directly compare two distinct things using "like" or "as." Analogies often involve more complexity than similes, which are typically used to create vivid descriptions. Both can be effective tools in communication and writing.
