Is the max wattage the same on a 1.2ohm coil stock coil vs. rba?

Your max wattage is dependant on the battery. The ohms is dependant on the build you make, which depends on what battery you have.
If you shed more information, we could give you some help.

No.
Use steam engine coil calculator to figure out the wattage
Unless using a unregulated mod resistance has nothing to do with watts produced by a coil.
I sincerely hope that the OP is not using a Delta 2 on a unregulated mod.
i think the stock coils come with a wattage range printed on them but the rba heads do not, so the OP wanted to know what the wattage range for the rba head is.
the wattage range depends on the coil; you can use steam engine coil calculator to check the wattage range for your coil.

If you build with the same gauge of wire, with the same type i.e kanthal/ss/nickel/titanium/etc. and to the same resistance, the wattage range you'll get a good vape with should stay the same. How much wattage a coil needs is entirely dependent on the resistance (ohms), type of wire, and wire gauge. Batteries/mods have absolutely nothing to do with the power requirements of a coil, only capability or lack of it to deliver power to the coil.
Like has been mentioned use Steam Engine or one of the numerous apps available for phones/tablets that do the same job. It'll make the learning curve easier.

There is no wattage range setting in steam engine. It does include heat flux but heat flux is essentially irrelevant to the way we use heating elements.
You could use it as a relative baseline for one atomizer but finding a base number based on eliquid composition and airflow cooling rate would still be trial and error.
OP, start low and work your way up.
Sort of, but you have to work backwards. Find a wattage you like for an existing coil of one gauge and diameter at one airflow rate in one atty then input that data into steam engine. The number it produces is only relivent if you only use one gauge of wire and one diameter coil at one airflow rate.
If you switch wire gauge or coil diameter or airflow you have to start over and find a new relative baseline through trial and error.
OP, the answer you're looking for is "it depends". If you build a coil on the RBA deck that is the same as the stock coil, then yes. But not all 1.2 ohm coils are created equal. You could build a big, beefy 24ga kanthal coil at 1.2 ohms that will take much more wattage than a stock coil. Or you could build a dinky 32ga coil that needs much less wattage. That's the beauty of building your own; try everything and find your personal preference.
Max wattage is dependent on Wicking and Air Flow.
If you can keep it wet and cool, you can raise the wattage.
Restricted air or tight coil chamber design will limit usable wattage.
