Wrong. It's false only because there's a time lag between the times that the fouls occurred and the fact that both fouls occurred before the clock started again.
The second foul doesn't necessarily have to be intentional or flagrant. The second foul can be an ordinary technical foul. The second foul foul can also be a common personal foul-example: a foul committed during a FT attempt or on a throw-in before the clock has started.
Rule 4-19-1 refers to specific plays only...contact after the ball has become dead. You can also have non-contact technical fouls as part of false double fouls; you can have personal fouls as part of false double fouls too because the ball can again become live before the clock starts(as on free throws and throw-ins).
Don't get hung up on the terminology. The basic thing to remember is just that you penalize the fouls in the order that they occur.
