In a concave lens the object always forms a virtual image. The convex lens also forms a virtual image.
The mirror in this case is a convex mirror, as virtual images are formed by convex mirrors.

No, an image formed by a convex mirror is always virtual and upright. Concave mirrors can form both real and inverted images.
Here is a description of image formation in a concave mirror: if the object is beyond the center of curvature (F), the image formed is real and upside down; if the object is very near to the concave mirror, the image forms behind the mirror. It is virtual, upright, and bigger in size. Here is a description of image formation in a convex mirror: a convex mirror always produces a virtual, upright, and smaller image of the object at any distance in front of it. The image is located behind the mirror.
A convex mirror is most similar to a diverging lens. Both surfaces curve outward and cause light rays to diverge.

concave and convex mirror
A convex mirror is most similar to a diverging lens. Both surfaces curve outward and cause light rays to diverge.
Such a mirror is concave.
No, a concave mirror and a convex mirror have different curvatures and focal points. A concave mirror reflects light inward, converging it to a focal point, while a convex mirror reflects light outward, diverging it. They cannot interchange their functions.
A convex lens is more like a concave mirror in the way it produces images. A convex lens converges light rays to form real or virtual images, much like how a concave mirror can do the same by reflecting light. Both convex lenses and concave mirrors can produce both real and virtual images depending on the object's position relative to the lens or mirror.
