Yes, technically, these are attributes as they essentially define a tag; in this case, the image tag - and I call them attributes when talking with Webnauts, but the rest of the time I still call them tags.

I do believe it's best to have both - for accessibility and for SEO reasons ... it's a win win! But no, don't have them the same ... use them as they are meant to be used; and use keywords in them only when it truly fits.
