No, Carol Luiken and Bill Mickley were long gone by the time JHC arrived. In fact, one reason why Felicia Minei Behr never ranks as high on my list of fave EP's is because she dismissed them (in favor of (IIRC) Charles Schoonmaker and Margarita Delgado, and Kevin Rupnik, respectively).

FMB also got rid of Mickley when she joined ATWT, along with costume designer Toni-Leslie James, claiming in one interview that the clothes got "loud" in order to compete with the "loudness" of the sets. Granted, it was a bit of a shock to go from Larry King, who'd been all earth tones, to Mickley, who used more pastels. But, seriously, Felicia?

To be fair Behr was essentially hired by AMC to modernize the show's look--that was, from what I understand, her main priority (and to tighten up the canvas a bit). I am not sure when she fired the people mentioned, but she could have thought that was the first thing to do for her job. At least the show still looked pretty great under her.
