That depends on how you've chosen to view it.
If you're looking at both things and saying, "Neither is possible via human means, so they're both false." - then yes, they're on equal levels.
If you look at then as apples and oranges - a con man claiming to read invisible tablets vs God incarnate claiming to walk on water - then they're not even close.
Separate Point
I've always found people's objections to the miracles of Jesus interesting. The usual objection always seems to be "How could He do that? It's impossible." - one must wonder why people mentally limit the abilities of a deity to manipulate earthly materials and substances. Limitting his abilities only to the extent of human levels.
Is there some reason God shouldn't be able to do something as trivial as turning water into wine? Is there some reason God shouldn't be able to walk on water? For that matter, is there some reason the designer of the universe "can't" use a pre-designed alternate system to cause immaculate conception?
