I'd say "probably not", but you are the only one that can answer this
question. Are you running Apache on those machine? And which version?
If you don't know, run something like 
echo -e 'HEAD / HTTP/1.0\r\n\r\n' | netcat HOST PORT
and check the "Server:" field

If somebody was smart enough to change the banner, enable "experimental
scripts", HMAP will fingerprint the server and detect the fake banner.
