Not really. INVITE means something: it means "I'm trying to set up a
session, and here's a description of that session." The first half ("I'm
trying to set up a session") has specific semantics associated with it. The
second half ("here's a description of that session") tells you exactly what
goes in the body.

INFO just says "Here's a framed chunk of data."

There is no valid comparison between the two.
