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

Yes

The spelling, meaning, and grammatical function of "questionário" are identical in both Brazilian and Continental Portuguese. The only difference lies in pronunciation: Brazilian Portuguese tends to have more open vowels and a more melodic, rhythmic cadence, whereas Continental Portuguese features more closed, reduced vowels (where unstressed vowels are often pronounced very subtly or almost silently).
