Yes and no.

Yes: Much of the socket API (the functions and their semantics) on
Windows is the same as on Unix. But there are some important
differences. Google is your friend.

No: Those headers aren't used in Winsock, the Windows implementation
of the socket API, which is what mingw provides. One uses <winsock2.h>
and <ws2tcpip.h> instead.
