no, the first one is a forgery pretending to be by Wu Zhen, this picture is the closest thing like it that is supposedly done by Wu himself: https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/41468

Second one is a reproduction of a picture attributed to Ma Yuan, now in the National Palace Museum I think
