Probably a matter of opinion but it would seem to stretch credibilty to take license for direct substitution of one for the other in literature. It might be better to say they have analgous characteristics or analogous structures. The term analogy is used in evolutionary biology do describe a common descent: indeed, crabs and lobsters do share a significant portion of their taxonomy, for example, those categories which describe marine crustaceans.
