Von is my real light colored cat and Danzig is the darker orange tabby. They are both big sweethearts.

Everything is fully possible.  The problem is, as I see it, its Danzig on the first pic, whom maybe has some look alikeness to a Maine.

While Von, the girls fiancée, although very pretty hasnt the apparent look alike similiarity...     I cant really tell anything for just one part body photo where I see only the head and the tail, but the head reminds me of a typical nice shorthair, + a grandious tail to it...

This is one of my rescue kitties. Von is a big cat and thought maybe he could have some Norewegian Forest cat or Maine Coone. What do you think?

He's gorgeous. Love his markings.  After my sister adopted a Maine Coon (Jasper) we were looking in a cat breed book and comparing them to the Norwegians. They do look very similar. If I remember correctly the profile of the Norwegian's face was fairly straight....from the forehead down the nose....and the Maine Coon had a small dip on the end of the nose. I think the Norwegian's head shape was more triangular too.
