The similar motif is a curiosity at this point. Nothing rules out the Zonai having some sort of link to the Twili, especially if they end up also being magicians of some sort, but it doesn't really confirm it either. But even if its just a thematic connection and not an explicit one, it's an interesting thought nonetheless. Someone's probably said it before but he hand magic that Link has (which may be connected to the Zonai) arguably has some similarity to Zant having a similar power?
Comparing things to the Sheikah and the Twili are a trend with new Zelda games we don't know anything about but since the Sheikah are more than likely already present in Tears of the Kingdom (hey I actually said its name), then it's easier for us to kind of reach the Twili conclusion. Whether or not it actually ends up having anything to do with them, I just hope the themes and environments with their hieroglyphs and architecture sets a fantastic atmosphere for exploration.
