Roughly, yes! A PTE score around 65 is generally equivalent to an IELTS Band 7.0. But check your university-specific requirements. They may require a minimum score in each section.Not just total average.

Yes, you can go to Australia with a 6-band equivalent in PTE — but it depends on what you're applying for (student visa, work visa, or permanent residency) and what “6 bands” refers to.

If "6 Bands" is referred to as IELTS bandscore equivalent, then an overall IELTS score of 6.0 is roughly equal to a? PTE Academic score of about 50–58. 

This allows you to go on a Australian Subclass-500 student visa which require a minimum PTE score 50. However, this score may not be suitable for admissions to many top Australian universities as they require a minimum PTE score of 65.
