Yes, there were. There were also lo-backed IXs, and I challenge any of us to tell the difference between a IX and XVI! But I'm pretty sure nines didn't operate in that theatre. XI Sqn definitely operated Fourteens, but that picture isn't of any variant of the XIV. I have found some reference to them operating XVIs, but the Sqn History on the XI Sqn Association website doesn't refer to that. However, as I say, there's no reason why Leo's pictures should be of his own unit's machines - none of the others you show are (I assume)!
