Can you swap one for the other?
Only partly. Most of raspberry's flavor molecules (151 of 204) are also found in peach, but peach has 220 that raspberry lacks. Raspberry gives you part of peach's character without most of its roast. This compares flavor only; texture, moisture and the job each does in a dish matter too.
