No they are not, because there is no LCD flat touch screen as main I/O on any those devices and some of them have physical keyboards. The Nook 1st gen. uses a mini LCD screen on the bottom, but the main output is via eink, so it's an ereader, not a tablet.

Again, this is not the main topic of this thread. If you are confused about the term, I suggest investigate about it.
