Generally, yes.  PGP holds a patent on the Additional Decryption Key
functionality (which GnuPG developers have said will not be implemented
in GnuPG, even if it weren't patented), though, so that's an example of
one of the minor incompatibilities between the two.

I am unaware of any certified laboratory which has declared GnuPG
conformant to any FIPS.
