Yes, but on the other hand, it was never specified that all the bodyguards must be Hunters: as far as we know, only Kurapika applied for that work through the Association (and Melody too, in the anime), and we know that Squala was not one. Although it is possible that they are Hunters, we can't consider them as such unless specified otherwise.

I'm saying this to justify my guess, since I did not know that those two pages had an error (or what could be an error).
