Not Correct. The Air Bags are real Air Suspension system taking advantage of the Compressibility nature of Air as Gas. And because of this, the pressure in the system can be controlled to achieve a variety of ride quality and height, self-leveling.

At least, the one I have in my Bimmer functions solely on its own as a complete Air Suspension system and not just a mickey mouse attachment at the end of any steel coil.
