Nope, all three of those, Nightmare, Coraline and ParaNorman are stop motion. In addition to the posable figurines, they also use a stop motion technique called replacement animation. Jack Skellington alone had over 2000 different heads, each for different facial poses, mostly speaking.

I will add that claymation is another subset of stop motion animation, but it wasn't used for these films.
