Unlike Julia to Winston, Clarisse never really showed any love towards Montag. She kept herself at a distance, and only offered true friendship. Both ladies were willing to disobey the laws of the time, in order to converse with the two men. Examples that I found were when Clarisse thought "outside the box" when she wasn't supposed to, which eventually lead to Montag's infamous rebellion. In 1984, Julia went outside of the society's rules (in a round-about-way), in order to show Winston that there was a chance towards rebellion against Big Brother and the Party.
Simply put, its the understanding that Clarisse and Julia demonstrate towards Montag and Winston, respectively, which motivates the protagonists to rebel.
I don't think they are alike in love, but in the way the are both rebellious, and how they both spark Montag's and Winston's intrest in how thier societys work

I think,Clarisse and Julia get Winston and Montag to rebel and they also give support to them and give them confidence in their actions.

I think that they are alike in that their love itself is a rebellion just like their silent actions against the government are also rebellions.
