Yes, that's true.

However, note that you can have more than one node affecting a
particular pin or group if you want. For example, you could have one set
of nodes that sets the mux, another set of nodes that sets
pullup/down/none, another set that sets tristate/driven. That way,
within each set of nodes, you get to group together all pins with
similar properties. This is all because we take the list of affected
pins/groups from the nvidia,pins property, rather than e.g. the node
name, so it's possible to list the same pin/group in multiple nodes. An
example from the Tegra Harmony board file:

There's one node for each mux function that's used, specifying which
pins/groups it's used on:

    ata {
            pins = "ata";
            function = "ide";
    };
    atb {
            nvidia,pins = "atb", "gma", "gme";
            nvidia,function = "sdio4";
    };
    ... many other nodes for other functions

There's also one node for each combination of pull and tristate that's
used, specifying which pins/groups it's used on:

    conf_ata {
            nvidia,pins = "ata", "atb", "atc", "atd", "ate",
                    "cdev1", "dap1", "dtb", "gma", "gmb",
                    "gmc", "gmd", "gme", "gpu7", "gpv",
                    "i2cp", "pta", "rm", "slxa", "slxk",
                    "spia", "spib";
            nvidia,pull = <0>;
            nvidia,tristate = <0>;
    };
    ... many other nodes for other pull/tristate combinations

I ran a script to group the various pins into nodes in different ways,
and this particular combination seemed to generate the smallest device
tree source file for Harmony.
