I think yes both are same following are the details given about both Exception

NumberFormatException (java) : -Thrown to indicate that the application has attempted to convert a string to one of the numeric types, but that the string does not have the appropriate format.

FormatException (.net) : - FormatException is thrown when the format of an argument in a method invocation does not match the format of the corresponding formal parameter type. For example, if a method specifies a String parameter consisting of two digits with an embedded period, passing a corresponding string argument containing only two digits to that method would cause FormatException to be thrown.

FormatException uses the HRESULT COR_E_FORMAT, which has the value 0x80131537.
