Can you swap one for the other?

No. Turkey and sriracha are different kinds of food, so neither stands in for the other, whatever molecules they share. Treat them as partners, not stand-ins. This compares flavor only; texture, moisture and the job each does in a dish matter too.

What they have in common

They overlap on 10 flavor molecules: 43% of sriracha's 23. Among the shared key aromas are 1-octen-3-ol (mushroom, earthy) and linalool (floral, citrus). Most of what they share is background chemistry many foods carry, so the overlap does little for the smell. Shared chemistry is a reason to try a pair, not a promise that it works on the plate.
