Yes, but they remain confined to niche applications because none of them has been designed to be incorporated in a framework that would allow the gradual migration to them of the legacy applications and device drivers.
Only Fuchsia might have a chance, because of the disproportionate control that Google has over the Android applications and because of the constraints imposed on those.

Technology-wise, it doesn't seem to do anything cool that hasn't been done before, and its business goals seem to be to get rid of that pesky GPL2 licensed stuff and to introduce a stable ABI for drivers (i.e. no accidental drivers for "real Linux" because of Android anymore).
