Yes. Both Tatakai and Yimada were absolutely certain that the man with the patterned face was... an undead!
To that end, Angel repeatedly confirmed with them whether they knew the difference between a dead spirit and an undead.
Their answers showed that they did understand the definition of an undead.
According to them, they had initially thought the patterned-faced man was a dead spirit because, after seeing them, he had muttered a long stretch of words... Though they could not understand his language, the fact that he could speak and express himself suggested that he might possess reason.
And anything with reason was surely a dead spirit, not an undead.
But once the patterned-faced man began attacking them, they immediately realized something was wrong.

Only undead could use negative energy to attack! Dead spirits not only could not use negative energy, but to them, negative energy was poison. Once contaminated by it, they would swiftly fall into undeath.
Therefore, the patterned-faced man before them was absolutely an undead!
