Joseph PBUH in the Quran. was a slave bought by an Egyptian ruler, got appointed as the ruler's son, then became a royalty.

I do believe that Akhaneten is following the same deity as Muslims.
The light of heaven and earth:

No.  Joseph is a fictional character meant to set the israelite tribes in egypt, sold into slavery by his brothers and rising up from there.  Akhenaten was born Amenhotep, younger son of Amenhotep, his older brother died, so he inherited the throne.  If you spent even a little bit of time looking up Akhenatens life you probably wouldn't want to suggest that he was your silly prophet..but I won't spoil the surprise for you there.

Akhenaten died around 1334bc, which, if you're capable of doing some basic math, is a great deal before the 600s ad.  So no, he wasn't your silly prophet, and wasn't worshipping your silly god.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

In order for different tradition to be shown to actually be worshipping the “same” deity, that deity must be shown to actually exist.

Two figments of imagination with some superficial resemblances are not the same figment of imagination.
