Also depends on how much root you remove, wether you bare root, slip pot or some where inbetween and how your after care is.

Black pine should be ok. Not sure on the Prunus. They are usually done just before bud burst.
Be very careful with your watering until you see new growth. The black pine still has foliage so will use water but at a reduced rate. Let it dry out a little before dewatering or you might root rot. The Prunus be even more careful. It will not be using water and will not grow new roots until spring so may be susceptible to root rot.
