Were this 2 coins from Portugal made for circulation?

I don't think so. They're different sizes from circulating coins.

Maybe a portuguese can tell us if they could find in the circulation.

There were two versions made a circulating copper-nickel version and a silver version. The copper nickel version did see limited circulation use - the silver was made for collectors. All of the older denominations were demonetized when Portugal joined the EU.
