New International Version, Matthew 25:
They are the same Greek word, so I think they carry the same meaning.
Eternal life is immortal life.
The key question is this: What is eternal punishment?
Eternal punishment is the opposite of eternal life. The punishment is eternal death, i.e., annihilation or the absence of life, Revelation 20:
My translation:
Do these two uses of "eternal" carry the same meaning? If yes, what does it mean?46 Then they will go away to eternal [G166] punishment, but the righteous to eternal [G166] life.

Eternal punishment is the opposite of eternal life. The punishment is eternal death, i.e., annihilation or the absence of life, Revelation 20:
Conscious punishment or suffering over an infinite period of existence makes little physical sense. To be conscious, you need a life or a breadth from God (Genesis 2:7). In other words, conscious torment over an infinite time is a form of eternal life. (See Ray Butterworth.)14 Then Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire.
