No, they are written in Old Negev (1200-600)

Many of these readings are very contoversal. And even if they were not, 
dating them as "late" as the Iron Age, as Sass does, means that all
of these 
so-called references to Yahweh are from AFTER the Israelite
"conquest". 
Calling the writers "Canaanite" in this context is misleading.
