Yes!

Are you are asking about the prepositions?
If so:

We were born IN the same: (space/measurement of time)
century
decade
year
month
week
hour
minute


We were born ON the same: (particular segment of time)
day (ie: segment of 24 hours/segment of a week)
Monday
Tuesday....

We were born AT the same: (specific time or location)
time
place

Example:

a) We should meet up IN the future. (non-specific space of time)
b) Definately! Are you free ON Thursday? (a segment of time)
a) Yeah, I think so. Where do you want to meet?
b) How about AT the train station (location/place)
a) Cool. AT 7? (specific time)
b) OK. see you then.

It can get more complicated - but this is a nice general rule.

Taken literally, they're incorrect. We aren't born in a year, but at a certain time of year. We're not born on a day, but we can share the same day of birth. And finally, we are born in the same hospital/hut/bathroom (whatever the case may be), but being born at the same place can imply that you were born in exactly the same place (ie: on one specific table, in the same room). However, I think the sentences are clear and understandable, so I'd say they're correct.

I would say they are correct but I'm sure I wasn't born in the same year, on the same day and at the the same place as you (haha)!

No, they are incorrect because we were not born in the same year, on the same day and at the same place.

Yeah, sounds right to me. In the same year, on the same day and at the same place. Bingo

good day, i'm from Texas. Your sentences are maximum perfect yet stiff. #a million at present (,) that's been 10 years because the international commerce midsection collapsed. at present is the 10th anniversary of the international commerce midsection give way. #2 this celebration is your maximum acceptable attempt. the following day typically is the 10th anniversary of the international commerce midsection give way the day previous ( delete IT) replaced into 19 years because the international commerce midsection collapsed. the day previous replaced into the 10th anniversary of the international commerce midsection give way.
