They are not the same.

Z61 is the widescreen equivalent of the T60. T61 is newer.

Parts that can be swapped between the two are keyboards, RAM, wireless cards (in most cases), and possibly LCD panels (not whole LCD assemblies).
Current: X220 4291-4BG, T410 2537-R46, T60 1952-F76, T60 2007-QPG, T42 2373-F7G
Collectibles: T430s (IPS FHD + Classic Keyboard), X32 (IPS Screen)
Retired: X61 7673-V2V, A31p w/ Ultrabay Numpad
Past: Z61t 9440-A23, T60 2623-D3U, X32 2884-M5U

Also, Z61 has the same RAM limitations as the T60 (4GB with only ~3GB usable), where T61/R61 can take 8GB.
Z61 is NOT a variety of T61/R61.
