Yes, they are the same. The former is more blunt. The latter more polite.

They are pretty much the same, but I think there’s a slight difference.
“I feel sick” is when you feel like you have a cold, virus, fever, etc.
“I’m not feeling well” is most commonly used when you feel sick, just like the expression above, but it can also be used when you’re in other types of discomfort (like breaking your arm, extremely tired, etc.)

Your health is your wellbeing. People in the US have wellness exams to see if everything in their body is working properly.
So “well” is a state of health that is good.
Not feeling well means something is not right with your body - you could be sick with a cold or sick to your stomach (nauseated)... but you can also be feeling down (depressed) or have a headache, which many would not use the word “sick” for.
So “feeling sick” is one of many things that could make you not “feel well.”

"Sick" is more specific than "not well." If I feel sick, I also do not feel well. But the reverse is not necessarily true. "Sick" is typically for illnesses, or for nausea. If I have a headache, or I'm stressed out, or I didn't get enough sleep last night, I can say I don't feel well, but I wouldn't say I feel sick.
"I feel sick" can also be used to express disgust or extreme worry over something.
"I can't believe how that boss treated his employees. I feel sick."
"So many people have lost their jobs, I feel so sick over it!"
In this meaning, you can't use "I don't feel well."

@callmeJenny if they have a headache they may say they don’t feel well but more often will be specific and say they have a headache
They won’t say they are sick though
