Is the word análise the same in Brazilian and European Portuguese?

Yes

The spelling, meaning, and grammatical function of "análise" are identical in both Brazilian and European Portuguese. The difference is strictly phonetic. In Brazilian Portuguese, the vowels are more open and the unstressed final "e" is clearly pronounced as [i]. In Continental Portuguese, the vowels are more closed and compressed, and the unstressed final "e" is often reduced or nearly silent, making the word sound more muffled.
