No, it's not. Usually. In the US. Coriander, ground or seeds, is a
quite different spice than cilantro, which is the leaf of the same
plant. (Go figure) Dried cilantro is available labeled as such, and is
almost *nothing* like fresh cilantro (coriander) leaves.

Yes. Search on "jalapeno powder". Like most chiles, jalapenos can be
dried and powdered. It's a rather 'specialty' spice because these
peppers are usually used fresh, and are widely available in even the
most down-scale grocery stores.
