Yes, both are easy to do.

For Rebel 12, use the Winboard version called Rebel12_CB.exe and just install it
as a Winboard engine.

For Shredder UCI, you have to install Roland Pfitzer's UCI2WB adapter.

Here is how I have set it up:
 Directory of U:\CHESSB~1\SHREDD~1

03/18/2004  12:35p      <DIR>          .
03/18/2004  12:35p      <DIR>          ..
06/06/2001  09:39p             119,296 adapter.exe
03/18/2004  12:27p                 166 adapter.init
03/18/2004  12:23p                 489 adapter.rc
03/05/2003  08:27a             352,256 Engine704.exe
03/18/2004  12:45p                 576 shredder.plr
03/18/2004  12:35p               6,974 Tournament 3-18-2004.CMT
               6 File(s)        479,757 bytes
               2 Dir(s)   8,152,145,920 bytes free

U:\CHESSB~1\SHREDD~1>type adapter.init
[Parameter]
CommandLine =

Logfile = False

U:\CHESSB~1\SHREDD~1>type adapter.rc

Then you install adapter.exe as a Winboard engine under ChessMaster.
It is pretty easy to do it.
