Crime typically occurs once as a result of temporary circumstance. Deviance is an long term set of behaviors that is marked by mental illness.
Deviance refers to behavior that violates societal norms, while crime specifically refers to behavior that violates laws. Some deviant behavior is criminal, but not all deviance is criminal. Both deviance and crime challenge social norms and can lead to societal consequences such as stigma or legal punishment.
Yes they are the same

Sociologists of deviance are likely to study crimes that challenge social norms and values, such as white-collar crime, hate crimes, and cyber crimes. They also focus on understanding the social construction of crime, deviance, and the labeling process in society.
The evil genius plotted with great deviance.'Your crime showed deviance and forward planning, therefore I am giving you the maximum allowed prison sentence.'Add some deviance to your bedroom experience - stop by your local adult superstore today!.
An example of formal deviance is committing a crime such as robbery or murder, which violates specific laws and norms in society. Formal deviance is typically punished by the legal system through sanctions such as fines, imprisonment, or probation.

Labeling and differential association
Deviance generally just means "different from the norm" or "taking a different path" and whatever you are comparing it to is essential to what it means on a larger scale. So, if you are talking about people who deviate from the law, then they could be the same thing as criminals. However, if you are just talking about deviance from the norm, then people who are left-handed or people who are any kind of minority would be deviant, just because they are different, and that definitely isn't the same thing as criminality. Also, in that case, deviance would be different depending on where you were. In Japan, a blonde would be the deviant for instance.
A crime is an act that is against the law. Deviant behavior may be criminal in some cases but it is not always against the law.
