Yes. As far as I know, all the hand and pneumatic squeezers avalilable accept
the same .187" shank dimple dies and rivet sets. In fact, Avery and Cleveland
squeezers both use pneumatic squeezer yokes.
A "springback" dimple die is machined to make a slightly deeper dimple to compensate
for the springback in the aluminum when it is formed. In other words, it
just makes a crisper, better fitting dimple than a cheaper die which doesn't
take that into consideration.
A full explanation of a springback dimple die is given in the Avery tools catalog.
It really comes down to a matter of quality in materials and accuracy in
the die. Cleveland, Avery, Brown, and others have good quality stainless dies.

Okay, I give...... What is the difference between the two die types?
Will the spring back work with a pneumatic squeeze?
