They are similar creatures, yes. They are both exoskeletal (have their skeletons on the outside), so they both belong to the Phylum Arthropod (Linnaean taxonomy classifies living things into Kingdoms --> Phylum --> Class --> Order --> Family --> Genus --> Species). For more on Linnaean taxonomy and Arthropods, see the Related Links below.

Crabs and Lobsters both have exoskeletons, much like cockroaches; they are also all cold blooded and can survive in the roughest conditions.

Cockroaches and shrimp are both members of the phylum Arthropoda

and share some common characteristics, including segmented bodies and

legs, and a hard outer skeleton.

Somewhat. Both are arthropods, but of different classes, the lobster being a crustacean and the roach an insect.
