yes in canon. the third eye is simply a third eye(the minds eye) everything that is in Naruto is based directly from mythology EVERYTHING every explanation of every technique is the same thing as it is in real world mythology everything from izanagi and izanami being anti to each other since the third eye in real mythology is a reflection of the persons inner eye and since they already said the sharingan is the eye that reflects the soul. its proven that it is cannon being that the sharingan is the eye that reflects the soul and that a third eye concept is an eye that reflects the soul and that when mentioning kaguya's eye as being sharingan(in manga ) that instantly proves the third eye is a sharingan

and since both sasuke and madara have the Rinnegan there third eye is a rinnegan the reason they all look a like with slight variations is because its the third eye
