Can you swap one for the other?

Only partly. Almost all of flour's flavor molecules (112 of 115) are also found in peach, but peach has 259 that flour lacks. Flour gives you part of peach's character without most of its fruit. This compares flavor only; texture, moisture and the job each does in a dish matter too.
