    Yes they would. A nephew is a son of one's sibling or half-sibling, and a niece is a daughter of one's sibling or half-sibling. Sons and daughters of siblings-in-law are also informally referred to as nephews and nieces respectively, even though there is no blood relation.

    If your brother was a step-brother then they would be step-niece and step-nephew.

    Enjoy their company and good luck.

    Well a new born baby can be an uncle or aunt to a 30 year old guy. I would say that you would be probably just considered as an in-law :)
