Not really,

A check airman in the UK is a Line training captain which is an operations qualification rather than a Licencing one. A TRI is an instructor and depending on the level of qualification they can teach either in the sim or on the aircraft or both.

A TRE is an examiner who will conduct checks for rating issue/renewal/revalidation in the sim(most likely).
