Yes, these would be similar. Rule of thumb is 1:1, so if you reduce an inch of diameter you want to add an inch of pitch. Given that, going two inches of pitch change will make a RPM difference (or the motor will load heavier/lighter) of around 200 RPM per inch of pitch, less if you're reducing pitch, more if you're increasing pitch.
