No that is not true. I'm not sure why that silly notion was spread, I've seen it on reddit too. Theoretically the protocol does allows for an extension for this but it's not implemented and would need special considerations to do. And any client implementing this would not just swap files willy nilly, they'd implement some kind of permission or opt in. There are potential applications for this but not for regular torrents.
