No they don't have same

The relative permeability μr is then defined as the ratio μ/μ0, which is dimensionless and has the same numerical value as the permeability in the cgs system

Explanation:

We know that the formula for magnetic permeability  

\mu=\frac{B}{H}

Where  

B = Magnetic Field

H = Magnetization Intensity

The SI unit of Magnetic Field is N / A M

Then its dimensional formula is  \left[\begin{array}{lll}{M} & {A^{-1}} & {T^{-2}}\end{array}\right]

But SI unit for Magnetization intensity is A / M

Its dimensional formula is  \left[\begin{array}{ll}{A} & {L^{-1}}\end{array}\right]

Thus the dimensional formula of permeability  

\mu=\frac{\left[M \quad A^{-1} \quad T^{-2}\right]}{\left[A \quad L^{-1}\right]}

Whereas relative permeability can be explained as the ratio of magnetic permeability of any medium to the permeability of the vacuum.

Where \mu_0 =absolute permeability of vacuum

So relative permeability is a dimensionless quantity

Therefore, the relative permeability is dimensionless quantity a permeability have different dimensions
