Nah, not those alone. Developing only one side of a movement can cause serious health problems. Like how people that get only their calves really strong are prone to getting pulled tibia muscles doing sports because those muscles cannot keep up and fatigue out quickly. I can only imagine how terrible it would be to only have a strong back if you end up doing the wrong movement some day.

Sorry I meant in context to keeping a strong trunk and a happy lower back. Of course you'd want a good balance of exercises to support even muscle development
