There's a difference. Plugins can do great things but there are some difficulties in some emulations.

Compressor emulations are really good nowadays, but EQ and oscillators are more difficult to program. Some even say it's impossible to reproduce an analog oscillator in digital domain correctly.

Saturation also seems to be hard to emulate. I like the sound of some saturator plugins, but haven't come a cross a one that sounded like a real analog saturation.
