Assume that minor adjustments to the derailleur (limits and indexing) will be required with any change, even like for like, due to manufacturing tolerances; different hubs almost certainly. It is possible to adjust the cassette position with shims to mostly eliminate this. Sticking with the same gears, or at least large cog, will likely spare you from a B-screw adjustment.
