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

Yes

The word "treino" is identical in meaning, spelling, and grammatical function in both Brazilian and Continental Portuguese. The primary difference is pronunciation.

Additionally, while the word is the same, the surrounding syntax (the way sentences are structured) often differs due to the use of different pronouns and prepositions.
