No, the fragments with same number of base pairs do not always the same exact fragments.

Explanation:

Lets take an example, There are two fragments of DNA, having 20 number of base pair each. But the one fragment contains a sequence in which there are 12 GC base pairs.

The second fragment contains sequence with only 5 GC pairs.

Hence the same number of base pairs in fragments does not assure Exact fragments.
