Probably.  In theory, just because the version numbers are the same
doesn't mean that there weren't minor tweaks.  I think this is pretty
unlikely, however.  [1]

Any reason you can't just check out copies of src/contrib/openssl for
the RELENG_4_5 and RELENG_4_6 branches and diff them?  If the only
deltas are version numbers, you're probably safe.

Bruce.

[1] This statement is based only on my own recollections of OpenSSL
imports and upgrades around this time.  You could look to see if I
documented any changes in the release notes or errata, but I don't
remember doing anything like this.
