If you are using "American Catholic Church" as a proper noun, then there is a protestant denomination which had its roots in the Old Catholic Church (a breakaway from the Catholic Church after Vatican Council I), which styles itself "Catholic".
.
If you are using the term as descriptive of the Catholic Church in America, then it is a result of a heresy called Americanism, which was officially condemned by Pope Leo XIII in his apostolic letter, Testem Benevotentiae (January 22, 1899) addressed to Cardinal Gibbons, who was the ninth Archbishop of Baltimore until his death in 1921. Americanism said that the Catholic Church should adjust its doctrines, especially in morality, to the culture of the people, it emphasised the "active" virtues of social welfare and democratic equality, it underrated the "passive" virtues of humility and obedience to ecclesiastical authority.

Yes, in that they both originated with the Catholic Church, went into schism, while retaining valid Orders and valid sacraments: to that extent they are alike, although the American Catholic Church, which is derived from the Old Catholic Church, a schismatic group that went into schism after the First Vatican Council, is not in communion with the Catholic Church nor the Orthodox Church. The American Catholic Church is in communion with the Anglican Church meaning, when all is said and done, they are yet another protestant church, while the Russian Orthodox remains Catholic to a degree.
