Not even all the 4th gen rads are the same (different core thickness and fan mounting points etc) so I'd be surprised if 5th gen ones are the same as 4th gen ones?
Hopefully someone on here knows for sure though!

Thats a definate no - mounting points are different
Here is a link to the rad size for most 4Th Gens

There is also different rad caps too, Type F or D's.

For OEM, Denso rads have 5 fan blades, Toyo 4 (if you buy a rad with original fan fitted of course!).

Part numbers for rad caps:

Denso (D-type) 19045-PAA-A01
Toyo (F-type) 19045-PCA-004

To be fair, you usually get a new cap with the a new rad, so kind of irrelevant.

I see you have a 5th gen for racing. I have a spare 5th gen alloy rad (thicker core) going spare - brand new never fitted as I have a 4th gen and It was too much fuss to make new brackets to get it to fit. I since bought a 4th gen specific ali rad.

Let me know

Chill out, you were being helpful

the question was "Are the 4th Gen rads same as 5th Gen?"

Giving the OP as much info as possible is the best thing to do
