NO! A recorder is an instrument that uses holes at the right pitch and does not have valves like a flute to create it's tones. A flute is a flute and a recorder is not a flute. The fingering of a clarinet and a saxaphone and a flute at all the same, but you wouldn't call the either the same. A recorder has only a spicific range and quality that a flute cannot produce. Especially if it is made of wood.

Bo, A flute is a specific woodwind instrument which developed as a result of the fact that records were tiny sounding. The flue is a transverse instrument, played with the pipe sideways off the mouth, after blowing across an aperture. The modern recorder still has none or few extras, which the flute acquired from the mid 1800s modern and complete Bohm system of extra metal combination pieces ( keys) to open and close hole with the touch of one button.
The recorder flossed bring there renaissance and baroque, and even appeared in early classical music, That means, a lot was written fro it from 1300-1760.
The recorder, played with virtuosity, especially the soprano recorder (which Vivaldi employed) evokes magical powers and is truly astonishing in terms of its beauty and technique.

Yes. It is known as a fipple flute and is held like a clarinet (in front of the player). An orchestral flute is a transverse flute and held across the lips.
Children in England are taught to play the recorder in school -- an easy and inexpensive way to learn music.

Recorders and flutes are quite different instruments.

You CAN, but you'd be wrong in doing so. They are entirely different instruments. Flutes are played across the lips and held out to the side. They have pads that you push to cover the holes to change the notes. Recorders are played in front of you, you blow into them like a clarinet (but without a reed), and you cover the holes to change the notes with your fingers.

You could, but you would sound pretty uneducated.
