They do different things and (for me anyway) give different
results. Consider the package "cltl" that I do not have installed:
$ apt-file search cltl # Search repositories
cltl: /etc/emacs/site-start.d/60cltl.el
cltl: /usr/share/doc-base/cltl
cltl: /usr/share/doc/cltl/README.Debian
cltl: /usr/share/doc/cltl/changelog.gz
cltl: /usr/share/doc/cltl/copyright
...[other results]...
$ apt-file search 60cltl.el # Search repositories
cltl: /etc/emacs/site-start.d/60cltl.el
$ dpkg-query -S cltl # Search installed packages
dpkg: *cltl* not found.
$ dpkg-query -S 60cltl.el # Search installed packages
dpkg: *60cltl.el* not found.
