If the shell supports it then the -l extension (e.g. bash) can enable
it to be a login shell and then it would be the same.

ssh -t someserver "cd $(pwd) && exec -l $SHELL"

However that does make for a funny looking $0.

echo $0
-/bin/bash

For me the following works:

ssh -t someserver "cd $(pwd) && exec -l \$0"
$ echo $0
-bash
