I think you'll find that aftermarket suppliers will make a generic part that will fit both models, rather than tailoring a specific shock for each.
If you look at the OEM parts, they will be different because of the characteristics of each vehicle, e.g. ride & handling.
If you were to look for other aftermarket parts, you would also find that the axle and hub assembly, master cyl, power brake booster are the same for both. Without looking any further, I'm certain many other parts would be the same.

Physically, OEM shocks for TL, TSX, and Accord are the exactly the same. Even the A-spec or HFP shocks look exactly the same for these cars.
But, I wouldn't even bother with KYB GR-2. These are OEM replacement, so they're not going to be significantly better than your OEM ones. They'll still be too soft for lowering springs.
