Possible to identify bank from account number?

A family member recently passed away and we are trying to sort out their estate. We have found in their purse a piece of paper which looks like it has a list of account numbers (all 8 digits but no sort codes).
Is it possible to identify if these are indeed active account numbers and possibly which banks they belong to?
