Somewhat, in terms of macro munging vs actual templates and other conveniences yes, however its still very possible to have unsafe memory operations and to accidentally create unexpected behavior. They have their own footguns in some ways, for example Jai's use of arenas can be tricky in more complex programs (e.g. you stored a value with a reference or array, the arena expired). Great for games, bad for most normal code.

Hence why I say, if you are doing complex / multi-threaded code, good luck to you.

This is why the GC and memory safe languages have mostly taken over. They have even more ergonomic syntax, and none of the footguns. You can still do all the normal pointer casting / abuse type stuff in most of these languages too.
