Yes, partially. In US both are endmills, capabilities ID'ed by number of flutes.
A shell mill is like an End Mill but is bolted to an arbour

Yes, exactly, or that of a horizontal mill. Full length arbors aren't named that I know of, stub is self-explanatory.
Deadlock cutter is screwed to an arbour with a realise mechanism built in the arbour via to dog grub screws one tightening the cutter and the other to release

New to me, 100%
Are the names for these items the same in the US? Yes.
