Do FCLGA1366 processors work on LGA1366 motherboards?

First of all do FCLGA1366 processors work on LGA1366 motherboards? and what is the difference between a FCLGA1366 socket and LGA1366?

They're the same thing I'm pretty sure.

I believe they're the same. The 'flip chip' naming has been around for a long time.

All it means is before they put the chip onto a package they flip the die over so it's on the top of the package not on the underside with the pins.
