No they're not, due to rounding.

Take for example 2 texels:
R=1 G=0 B=0 and R=0 G=255 B=0

Lerping in the texfetch would spawn something like:
R=0 G=128 B=0
Definitely not what you're expecting! You'd want :
R=0 G=255 B=something

Using texfetch interpolation fails because it doesn't treat the 3 channels as one number; it won't always interpolate in the correct direction (interpreting 128 as either 0,5 or 1,5 depending on what's on the next channel) and it won't alter the other channel accordingly either.
