Reincarnation implies the soul has been reborn. but thats not the case here. hagoromo said that when Indra and Ashura were destroyed there bodies and life were extinguished but their Chakra remained and over the years the chakra were reborn into their descendants

I am pretty sure that both hashirama and madara were named as reincarnations

No hagoromo said that his sons chakra did not die but was reborn over the years in their descendants. naruto said eww its like being possessed by some old dead guy then asked who is possessed by his son ashura hagoromo said You Naruto. you are Ashura's successor. you have inherited his chakra
