Well, yes I believe they are. However, keep in mind that there were at least four different style of rear disc brakes used on these cars over the years.
The 1987-89 external E-brake solution (actually works okay as long as you maintain the e-brake system and use it regularly. The 1989+ 14" wheel solid rotor internal e-brake (drum brake e-brake) uses a smaller diameter backing plate, e-brake shoes and rotor than the 15" wheel version. They will have a "14" stamped on the backing plate. The 1989+ 15" wheel solid rotor internal e-brake (drum brake e-brake) this is the more common one I believe as its essentially the same up through the 1st-gen Neons. They will have a "15" stamped on the backing plate. The 1989 15" wheel vented rotor internal e-brake (drum brake e-brake) This is less common and from what I can tell the rotors and possibly the calipers are the only real difference between this and the solid rotor version. They also will have a "15" stamped on the backing plate. Of course vented rear rotors are a bit of a waste of time and money since they take a certain amount of heat to work properly and you'd be hard pressed to make complete use of them with the lack of weight in the rear end of a FWD car (unless you're going to looks, or you've got an adjustable brake proportioning valve and you've relocated weight around in the car) Not to say they don't work, just not well enough to need the extra cooling of the vented rotors, IMHO.
