Sim. Todos os quatro filmes são canônicos um para o outro.
De acordo com uma entrevista do Yahoo Movies com Jurassic World diretor Colin Trevorrow, todos os quatro filmes são de fato canônicos um com o outro. Houve uma decisão consciente de excluir referências às duas seqüências originais (Lost World e JP3) porque ele não gostava muito deles e queria recapture a excitação do filme original.
Of course, Jurassic World isn’t a mere re-creation of Jurassic Park; it’s a direct sequel to the original, set some 20 years after the events of Spielberg’s film. (According to Trevorrow, the previous sequels aren’t being written out of continuity so much as placed to the side, as they both unfolded on a different island.) In that time, a functioning theme park has been constructed on Isla Nubar, overseen by operations manager Claire Dearing (Bryce Dallas Howard) and employing hundreds of staffers, including velociraptor trainer Owen Grady (Chris Pratt).

Para confirmar o link, informações foram adicionadas ao site viral do filme detalhando os eventos dos três primeiros filmes, junto com o que aconteceu desde o final do Jurassic Park 3.
Trevorrow: Yeah, we actually have a website that has a lot of backstory on it. It’s called “Masrani Global” and it’s the corporate website for Irrfan Khan’s character’s company, and it details very clearly the history all the way back to the Canadian Tiranodon clean-up of 2001 and what exactly happened since “Jurassic Park III” and how we reached this point. We mention it very briefly in the film, just a couple moments to make sure that people understand that this is in the same world and all of that is canon, which it is. Even though this is a direct sequel to “Jurassic Park,” it isn’t that necessarily in any official way, it’s just because that was a movie about a theme park and so is this, and “Lost World” and “Jurassic Park III” took part on another island and had nothing to do with the theme park business, so they just were very organically not as connected, but they do exist in this world.
Puramente FYI, Colin Trevorrow estava completamente claro que o último filme é uma continuação, não uma reinicialização
Q. Mr. Trevorrow, everytime I read something, it says JW is a reboot. Please tell us that its not a reboot?! I'm going bonkers!
Colin Trevorrow: Reboot is a strong word. This is a new sci-fi terror adventure set 22 years after the horrific events of Jurassic Park.
