All (well, almost all--more than 98%) of the sonnets have fourteen lines, the same rhyme scheme, convey important and eternal truths and are equally biographical.
Working from the premise that the sonnets are autobiographical, these two particular poems do not appear to deal with the same events or people in Shakespeare's life.
The only thing that might possibly link these two sonnets, as opposed to factors which link all 154 of them, might be the theme of reality vs. portrayal in literature. In Sonnet 18, Shakespeare notes the transience of earthly beauty, as compared to the lasting effect that a literary expression of that beauty can have. In sonnet 130, on the other hand, Shakespeare talks about the falseness of the standard similes found in literature to describe earthly beauty, as compared to the reality.
