Let (x,y,z) be an equilibrium of autonomous first-order differential equation:
{x˙=f1(x, y, z)y˙=f2(x, y, z)z˙=f3(x, y, z)
Is it possible to say that (x,y,z) is unique equilibrium point of the following system:
{x˙=f1(x, y, z)(xx)y˙=f2(x, y, z)(yy)z˙=f3(x, y, z)(zz)

A point x is called an equilibrium (stationary point/critical point) of a system of differential equations:
x=f(x1,,xn)
if xRn is a vector, such:
f(x1,,xn)=0
For your specific example, letting the expressions:
x=F(x1,x2,x3)(xx)=0
which means that x is indeed an equilibrium of the alternative system of differential equations that you mentioned.
