It depends. Mpost pepperoncini are pickled. If a dish calls for pickled jalapenos, you might be able to get away with it, since both provide tartness and heat. Pepperoncinis are milder than jalapenos, though--they only score 100-500 on the Scoville heat scale, while jalapenos are a bit higher at 3,500-8,000. If you need more heat in the dish, or it calls for fresh jalapeno because you are looking for a special flavor, you might want to consider a different pepper.
