So i have 1 stick of 8gb ram, if i buy another 4 gb and put it in the other slot, will they work as dual channel or at least performs the same as a dual channel kit ?
2 single stick ram = dual channel ?

no they won´t .
if you want dual channel to work you need to buy the exact same sticks .
performance will also be worse compared to dual channel .

So if i buy the same stick, will it guarantee a dual channel performance or is it not as good as a kit?

kit is always better .
if you buy them separately there is a chance it will not work in dual channel
even if they are otherwise the same .
