It depends entirely on the recipe that calls for the lady fingers. In some cases, shortbread cookies would be fine. In other recipes, shortbread would not absorb fruit juices or syrup as lady fingers would. Other, classic recipes would not hold together or taste right without lady fingers.

Yes, however, there is some debate over which is actually better. It all depends on which version you like more.
