If thats not the case, is there a way to calculate the BCH public key from my private key without importing the key into an external online software?

The grue lurks in the darkest places of the earth. Its favorite diet is adventurers, but its insatiable appetite is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome jaws to tell the tale.

yes and no.

the private and public keys are the same. however for it to be considered BCH the transaction has to be created for and broadcast on the BCH chain instead of the BTC chain. BCH transactions will not be accepted on the BTC chain and vice versa which is why it's no longer required to split your coins for security sake.
