I came across this page in Joomla's documentation and this page, are they the same thing? And are these capable of sending POST requests to an external API?

Please don't make researchers and volunteers link-chase. Please hardcode the focus of your question directly into your question body. Links help to support posts, but they must never be fully relied upon to complete a question. Please copy-paste the smallest necessary portion of content and use quote block formatting. – mickmackusa♦ Sep 7 '20 at 22:53
As you might already figured out, yes its the same and yes thats the way it works...
As described in the manual:
use Joomla\Http\HttpFactory;
// Create an instance of a default Http object.
$http = Http\HttpFactory::getHttp();
// Prepare the update data.
$data = array('make' => 'Holden', model => 'EJ-Special');
// Invoke the GET request.
$response = $http->post('http://api.example.com/cars/1', $data);
HavFun!
