No unfortunately, sodium nitrate is much less effective than sodium nitrite. It's harder to buy sodium nitrite because people have relentlessly put so much effort into taking away effective suicide methods.

No, it's the nitrite part that has the desired effect.
Potassium nitrite for example is also toxic for the same reasons.

You know I saw that you can make nitrite out of nitrate btw.

Is the potassium nitrite difficult to buy?

I don't know personally, although I'd imagine it's easier than SN.
But it hasn't been researched as a method and taking it might have some unintended consequences, so it's definitely more risky and possibly doesn't even work as well.

There's a GBT from someone who used KNO2 - maybe you can find it.

It's probably not too difficult but there could be issues with the purity. Lab experience is certainly an advantage.

I think potassium nitrite but not sodium.
