Yeah, the coefficients are the same but the initial moisture content in green wood is much higher than the wood will ever get to after seasoning, it won't suck that much moisture from the air (unless you're in a swamp or something). So the annual absolute change in millimeters is lower than from green to seasoned.
I have my woodworking projects in temperatures ranging from -25C to +100C (sauna) and extreme humidity changes from near zero to 100% RH. It is a form of art to make wooden things survive that, and I don't always succeed.
