I doubt that is the case. At the time Musnuri Nayakas (Kapaya and Prolaya) launched attacks to resurrect Kakatiya empire, Hindu rulers from North and South are cooperating with each other and I assume that is the reason for commonality of the legends/stories. Some warriors from North and South joined those Nayaks to push back.
Harihara and Bukka are such warriors joined Musnuri Nayaks in their fight.
Musnuri Nayakas were able to get Kakatiya empire back and keep it for next 40-50 years. Harihara and Bukka later went on to start Vijayanagara Empire.
