No, only the combat will be real time. And if you think about how complex it is going to be, how can it be otherwise?
Have you ever played an SE IV battle with 100+ ships in tactical mode? Did you finish before some part of the computer broke down?
They claim it's going to be very slow so you don't have to depend on your click-speed to win. Essentially, it's the 'impulse' or 'initiative' combat we've been hoping for in SE IV, just sped up a little bit.
