No, they are not reciprocal as the gedolim noted and ruled halachically especially those who ruled during times of great persecution like the Rambam and Rav Yonasan Eibeschutz.
But even IF (that’s for argument’s sake, though it’s not true) there were any reciprocity, that would be only the oath of rebelling against the nations, not the rest.
In other words, there is zero logic to claim that Jews may violate all their oaths just because the gentiles violated theirs of not subjugating overly much. If anything, the natural counter-balance to that oath, is the oath of not rebelling. That would still not permit aliya baChoma and dechikas haKeitz, for examples, because those are open rebellions against G-d.
But the Zionists flagrantly violated those two oaths as well, not “just” rebelling against the nations. And there is anyways no reciprocity, as per the poskim throughout history.
