My understanding is, in general, yes. At least major body parts and face parts. Even ones that differ (eg. our ears vs their ears).
Think about it this way how can you kill successfully if you don't have a basic understanding of the anatomy of what you're trying to kill?
I think a general body map is hardwired into more vertebrates. Heads always have eyes, ears and move around. Arms are on the upper torso and legs are at the end of the torso, tails are common.
Beyond that level, your guess is as good as mine though.
