Yes, you can compare almost any mythology to another.

For example I could compare Zeus and Thor.

This a chart of what they have in common.

-Lightning God

-Primary God

-Live in a World that is considered better than the human world. (Asgard for Norse and Olympus for Greek)

These are a very few and simple things they have in common, if you spent a longer time on it you could come up with many more similarities. You could also find what is different about them.

Most of the existing records on Norse mythology date from the 11th to 18th century, having gone through more than two centuries of oral preservation in what was at least officially a Pagan society.

Greek mythology is known today primarily from Greek literature and representations on visual media dating from the Geometric period from c. 900-800 BC onward.

So the Greek myths are older.

Greek mythology. Greek mythology was recorded around 1200 BCE (before common era). Norse myths were recorded in the Viking era, from 780-1070 CE (common era).

Who is the Norse of the Greek Venus?

Unlike Roman religion, which borrowed from Greek myth extensively and has clear equivalents to Hellenic deities, Norse religion developed in isolation from Greek and Roman mythos. There is no clear equivalent to Venus (who was a Roman goddess, equivalent to Aphrodite in Greek myths) in Norse mythology. However, as a goddess of love, beauty and sexuality, she has a strong semblance to Freyja, who serves all the same functions in the Norse pantheon.
