Well not entirely, as long as all your connections go over Tor, the clearnet nostr relay connections will go through multiple Tor relays and then a Tor exit relay before it connects to the clearnet nostr relay. It will probably look something like this : Your Tor traffic -> Tor relay -> Tor Relay -> Tor exit node -> clearnet nostr relay.
