It depends on the recipe, but typically no. Cherries Jubilee for instance requires brandy. Brandy cakes and hard sauces can use Bourbon but the taste will change. Flavored brandies can't typically be substituted, and specific recipes flavored with brandy won't taste the same flavored with bourbon.

Substitute for white cooking wine?
Depending on the dish being served, many different other liquids can be used as a substitute for cooking wine. (First of all, if you are using wine in recipes, if it isn't good enough to drink, then it generally shouldn't be used for cooking either.) Water can be used but as it brings no additional flavor to the dish, it is not ideal. However other options could include chicken or vegetable stock, tomato water, or even something like a very mild vinegar can serve as a substitute.
