Is the exhaust valve and the catalytic converter the same thing on a Toyota corolla?

No, it's a huge difference between the two.
The exhaust valve is a kinda mushroom shaped thing that sits in the cylinder head. It's closed to retain the force from the burning fuel, then opened to let the burned fumes out, then closed again for the next round.
The catalytic converter looks like a small muffler and is a part of the exhaust, bolted on in-line fairly close to the engine. Inside there's a honeycomb structure that the exhaust flows through. A special material - platinum - reacts with the exhaust to make it a little bit less polluting before it gets into the atmosphere.
