Yes! Thermal is just a synonym for heat.
AnswerNo. The terms, 'thermal energy' (and 'heat energy') are long-obsolete. The modern term for what used to be called 'thermal energy' or 'heat energy' is 'internal energy'. These days, 'heat' is considered not to be a 'form of energy', but energy in transit between a higher temperature to a lower temperature.
