I believe Matter = energy as stated by E=MC^2 applies to dark energy as well as dark matter.
But there the equivalence ends.
Dark energy = matter with negative mass.
Dark matter = matter with positive mass.
Thus in the effect of summation dark energy = negative energy = negative mass =\= dark matter.
Outside energy summation the properties of dark energy is also profoundly different from dark matter. Dark energy as far as I know is a homogenous property of space itself, dark matter exists in space, and is distributed highly non homogenously across space.
The total magnitude of dark energy or negative mass vastly exceeds the total magnitude of dark matter, or positive mass.
