If it’s AC current neutral can be live too and live can be neutral too. Isn’t it?

No. Neutral is always 0V, typically referenced to ground and that’s why it’s safe to touch. The live wire alternates between 240 and -240V and that’s why it’s called live.
That’s also why you have to respect polarity in things like ac motors otherwise they run in reverse.
