I am sorry I made a mistake when I replied to your post yesterday. I misread it.
Yes to your question, you can use the splices you show. I would look into getting some polaris taps, they are preinsulated. Failing that, the setscrew splicer/ reducers you show will work (right pic). I recommend wrapping first with standard tape inside out (to enable re-entry in the future) and covering with rubber tape and finally standard tape again, or a heavy shrink sleeve. (not the cheap kind)
I am confused, how do you plan on satisifying the disconnecting rules of NEC 225.32 calling for the disconnecting means being nearest the point of entry? When I wire a detached building with a subpanel, I have the feeder come right into the panel either from the back or bottom or top. I don't see how it is compliant to have it run for a ways inside first. I maybe missed that part of the project? Maybe I am losing it?
