That is not true. In a game I am playing, my SC with attacked an enemy's province, while his mage with some calvaries counterattacked. Both armies are regular foot movement type. They bypass each other and fought in their destinations respectively.

Well, I did start by saying "in my experience". I do however believe that flying increases the chance of a bypass. Size of respective armies may also play a roll and would explain the case you described.
