It's not the same. The risk of selling an option is that if you are forced to buy a stock, there is a possibility that the stock will return to zero.
One option contract is equal to 100 shares. For example, you are now forced to buy 100 Tesla shares. If one day it goes back to zero, you will lose a lot. Although in theory, leading giants such as Apple, Microsoft, and others don't seem to return to zero, nothing is 100%.
