Comparing types is somewhat complicated by some modern rectifier valves not being made to the correct original spec, but there will still be a difference between those two types.
I could tell the difference between a Sovtek GZ34 and an old GE 5AR4 by ear, when I had a friend swap them into an amp I was very familiar with - not a huge difference, but audible when you know what to listen for. That was at low-ish volume, too.
