I reckoned not but he bet me a 4-pack of Hobgoblin that they were. So:

The image above was generated using Morph Thing and the link the to page with the original images is here. And, while they are both similar, they really are not the same. Nina Sharp is played by Blair Brown and Kathryn Janeway is played by Kate Mulgrew.
