AP Exams are MUCH harder than CLEP exams.  It's also dang near impossible to take one after you've graduated from HS, because they are given during the school day on campuses, and they don't have to let you on campus to take exams (it's VERY hard for homeschoolers to take AP Exams).

So, yes, your chances of having AP Biology accepted for Bio 1 & 2 with labs is probably very high at most colleges, because there's a set curriculum AP courses must follow, and then AP Exams are notoriously hard.

It might be possible that some places offer online digital AP exams.

"Offering Digital AP Exams at Your School
  • Digital exams are optional. Schools make local decisions and choose to offer digital, paper, or a combination of paper and digital.
  • Test previews will be available in the Bluebook app throughout the year. Students and teachers can explore sample AP Exam questions and try out the testing tools."
Edit: Derp this says AT YOUR SCHOOL. So not online, just digital.

I am not sure how accurate this site is but you can use it to see who accepts CLEP.
