For my sister a few thousand miles away with a Nikon D30 (I think) and a
broken lens (see below), do you know if the two lenses below are
interchangeable for her?

DEFINITELY BROKEN: AF-S DX NIKKOR ED 18-55mm 1.35-5.6GII
POSSIBLE REPLACEMENT?: AF-S DX NIKKOR 18-55mm 1.35-5.6G VR

Yes, the second lens is Nikon's replacement for the first.

There is no such thing as a Nikon D30. It could be a D40, D40X, D50,
D60, D70, D80 or D90. The broken lens could have been supplied with
any of these camera bodies.

The possible replacement lens will work perfectly with any of those
Nikon bodies. It is optically much improved over the earlier version
of the 18-55mm (the broken one). It also has the benefit of optical
Vibration Reduction (VR) which helps reduce the effect of camera
shake. So it is likely to give significantly better results than the
broken lens.

Good luck.
