In theory - yes. Same with African grades. I've not done enough climbing in NZ to really confirm that they equate exactly.
But I will say this. If you move to another rock type that's different from what you are used to, you are likely to find the grades a bit stiff. So if you're crossing the Tasman, I'd suggest you plan on initially dropping a couple of grades, then work your way back up.
