Basically in some ways they are.

An individual who is an accountant, is required to inspect, keep, or adjust accounts. An example of such a person might be a Certified Public Accountant.

An individual who may be a bookkeeper, is in charge of keeping a systematic record of business transactions. An example of this person might be a private business owner.

So, in the respect that both individuals may work with numbers, adding machines, account ledgers (or books).

You can see that there are also different processes that each individual is in charge to handle.
