Question about macro lenses and bokeh

I am trying to understand how would the angle of view and the working distance of different macro lens affect the amount of the blur/bokeh?

For example, if I take 2 pictures:

1. One with 100mm FF macro lens, with work distance for 1:5 magnification, f/2.8

2. Second with 50mm FF macro lens, again 1:5 magnification (shorter work distance because of the wider angle of view), same f/2.8

Would both lenses produce the same amount of bokeh in this scenario?
