Answer:

No, they are not the same.

Step-by-step explanation:

The fittest individual is not necessarily the strongest, fastest, or biggest. Fitness also applies to the ability to find a mate and produce offspring. Survival is the form that an individual will leave the most copies of itself in the subsequent generations. Fitness does not include a measure of survival or lifespan.
