You're not the first who thinks Tarrlok is Amon, but then again a lot of people thought Asami was Amon before today's episode so go figure. Still, it's doubtful that they are the same person for a few reasons. First off in the first episode Tarrlok was present at Korra's press conference which was being broadcast live, we know that because it cuts to Amon and the Equalists listening to it live. The same thing happens in Episode 4 when Tarrlok and Tenzin are keeping watch over Aang Island when Amon attacks. The point is that you can't be in two places at once. Next, you're talking about two completely different poses when she has hallucinations. Amon strikes Korra's neck and walks back with his hands at his sides. Tarrlok bloodbends her into passing out with both hands stretched out. So that point's kinda pointless if you get what I'm saying.

Finally, and most importantly, we've seen both of their faces up close. Amon wears a mask but it is obvious he has amber eyes and fair skin. Tarrlok has dark skin and blue eyes. That doesn't mean they don't know each other or are even somehow related. But the same person? Not likely. They're just two very bad guys who are standing at both extremes in Republic City with Korra in the middle.
