Sort of... The two screens are extremely similar and it appears the hardware is technically compatible but the software is not.
I know the because ifixit recently sent me not 1 but 2 pixel 6 pro screens in their pixel 7 pro kits. the screens connect, turns on display, the google logo graphic appears and will actually go into the bootloader but that's it... The OS does not know how to initialize the Pixel 6 Pro's screen.. Likely because its a different resolution or vender etc...
I ordered the original screen on Monday and received the replacement screen on Tuesday with overnight shipping. With the weird issues I was having I assumed the first screen was bad. After contacting iFixit they sent me another screen and I received the 2nd replacement screen this Friday. The second screen is also a Pixel 6 Pro screen. It's the weekend and I am still waiting to hear back from ifixit next week.
I did a short video of the issue: https://youtu.be/PwLwJ0E-DK0?si=RLfeCIQl... not knowing what I had was actually a pixel 6 pro screen.
I did however take my phone to a local ubreakifix which is an authorized google repair center. They had a pixel 7 pro screen in stock and where able to fix my phone. They also confirmed 100% that ifixit sent me the wrong screen in their pixel 7 pro kit. It basically cost me $340 with tax to have the screen replaced last night $299+tax for the screen replacement and $22 to bribe the repair tech, which was my idea, to stay late after they closed and swap the screen on my phone.
To be clear I am not trying to steer people away from buying screen from ifixit. I am sure this was an honest, yet still extremely annoying, mistake. They'll make it right and resolve the issue once they are aware of it. IMHO probably a new guy in the stock room.
But I will be doing another video on this snafu.

Was this ever solved? The OEM replacement screens for the 7 pro are much cheaper than those of the 6 pro and I found several original minimally defective screen parts for 7 pro which cost less than those of 6 pro...
All that remains is to know whether the 7 pro screen can physically be attached to a 6 pro frame and if the screen connectors are compatible....
