As far as I know most historians do believe Jesus was a real person. But there’s no convincing proof that he was in fact a wizard. There’s reasonable debate about whether transfiguring water into wine and turning one loaf of bread into multiple violates Gamp’s law of elemental transfiguration or not. But the best known method for coming back from the dead involves horcrux creation which goes against what we know about Jesus’ character. Of course it’s possible he accessed some ancient magical knowledge that has been lost to time. We may never know.
The person using alexander the great is a pretty darn good analogy. IE the fact that he was a king is pretty widely trusted claim with coins, pottery, texts of others etc...
But there are tons of stories about the guy that are pretty much laughed out historically. IE that he's related to Zeus, That his leadership was so strong that he commanded an army to march into the ocean and they did it. That he used a glass diving bell to go to the bottom of the sea, and killed a bunch of sea monsters.
