For TPM 1.2, the answer is easy.  There is no exposed AES or TDES, or 
any symmetric algorithm.

For TPM 2.0, I don't see any direct compare.  However, there are some 
smart people on the TPM work group.  If you're a member, join us and ask.

For your specific case, what does "some encrypted secret" mean?  Is it a 
loadable object wrapped with "some symmetric key"?  Are -1 and -2 in the 
clear inside the TPM?  Are they encrypted identically, same key and IV? 
  The question is not clear enough.

My thought is that, e.g., if -1 and -2 are really identical decrypted 
secrets inside the TPM, and they can be loaded as HMAC or symmetric 
keys, then you can indirectly compare them.  HMAC or encrypt some data. 
  If the results are equal, the keys are equal.
