Other than the cracked leather, they look like mine. 1988 XJ Laredo. High back buckets with adjustable head rests.

Do they have the seat brackets?

Sergio:

Those appear to be like my 1990 XJ seats, except yours appear to be leather, mine of cloth with vinyl. The shape and headrest is identical to my 1990. So yes, I say, those are XJ seats. Note, the four door XJ seats do not have a forward tilt mechanism, but the two door XJ do have the forward tilt (forward tilt to allow access to the rear seats in the two door version) the two door and four door seats look the same except the two door seats have the forward tilt release lever on the upper side of the seat back. I installed 2 door seats of this style in my 4 door XJ because I set up a bed in the rear for sleeping, and the forward tilt type seats of the 2 door XJ give me more length for me to lay down in back on the platform I built. I am 5'6" and can sleep in back laying straight back, much taller and you need to stretch out diagonally

Anyway I digress, the seats shown are early XJ cherokee seats.
