The two strikers were included in coach Didier Deschamps' squad for upcoming European Championship qualifiers against Gibraltar and Greece after missing Les Bleus' previous games due to injury.
France tops the Group B standings in qualifying after back-to-back wins against the Netherlands and Ireland. The two-time world champions take on Gibraltar in Portugal on June 16, then host Greece three days later at the Stade de France.
Nkunku, who plays for RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga, has been sidelined for months due to a knee injury while Barcelona's Dembele missed a series of games due to a hamstring problem.
