There are a couple of interpretations to this question.
First: The fingering in these clarinets are the same, the only difference you will feel or notice is the spacing of the keys. Also, in clarinets like the contra alto and contrabass the fingering changes a little bit in the upper register pass the "high C", you basically add an extra finger (The "B" half way, the one that has a tiny hole, you'll know). So basically, when someone asks you to play and "E" you would play the same way across all clarinets pretty much (unless altissimo).
Second:
In terms of pitch, they are different. The contra alto Clarinet is in "Eb", and your regular clarinet is in "Bb" or "A" if you are playing some piece that requires the "A" clarinet. Therefore, you can technically say that the notes are not the same, because they are in different registers and even pitches. But, they are the same for the player, letting us read the music in the same clef.
