They are 2 of the many names of G-d, each one referring to a
different aspect of G-d. Interchangeable is not a valid context
here, the names are used in different places according to which
different aspects of G-d are in play.

BTW, another interesting data point is that SHEM ADONAI [lit., name
of Adonai] is very frequent, while SHEM ELOHIM is not. Clearly, YHWH
and Elohim were not interchangeable.
