I did 0 DPS and still held hate. So, no, you would be incorrect.
Look I agree that healers should do more than just healing if their current situation allows for it...but a tank who does zero dps is a bad tank because the second any very skilled dps comes along they'll rip aggro from them. To solidify threat on themselves tanks need to use the threat combo or hope no one in the group is very good at pumping out damage. Whereas a healer who only heals isn't going to get anyone killed. They just make the fights last longer.
