I do not think they are the same thing. Essentially "flavorings" here in the US are Alcohol based. For example: Several Vanilla Beans can be split and steeped in a Mason Jar of Vodka for several weeks to be used as Vanilla Extract.
However, if your Coconut Oil is being used as a flavoring it might work. Taste it. Does it TASTE like coconut? Another option depending on your recipe is Coconut Milk and just plain fresh flaked coconut.
