Does my old 300D fire Yongnuo 560ii, 560iii or 568EX?

My 300D works fine with the 430EX II

The 430EX II is roughly the same vintage as the 580EX II, my guess is it will work just fine. The only thing is the 300D does not support changing flash settings via menus, you'll need to do that from the flash.

Edit: I see you're asking about a non-OEM flash but my opinion is the same, the 300D works fine with newer Canon flashes and most, if not all, of the Chinese knock-offs are simply reverse-engineered Canon copies.
