Both of these novels were born from the same idea, namely "castaway" due to shipwrecked. Nevertheless, these two novels were produced in two different period of centuries. Robinson Crusoe was produced in the eighteenth century, while Life of Pi was produced in the twenty-first century. Bringing certain same idea of castaway does not mean to produce a similar narration.
