Fix some first order structure in some fixed language. If tuple $b$ is the image of tuple $a$ under some automorphism, then they have the same type. Is the converse true? That is, for any fixed tuples $a$ and $b$ of the same type, is there an automorphism mapping $a\mapsto b$?
If so, do $a$ and $b$ need to satisfy the same first order formulas, or does it suffice to satisfy the same atomic formulas, or something like this?
Edit: The question as stated above is false (see below). I am now wondering whether the substructure generated by $a$ and the substructure generated by $b$ are isomorphic
