Very close but not quite. When you bridge the PlayBook to a BlackBerry you use your BIS or BES connection that uses you BlackBerry data plan, but may be carried by your wireless carrier or Wi-Fi depending on the situation. If a BlackBerry is able to connect to the RIM servers (or in the case of BES directly to the BES server) via an available Wi-Fi connection then all BIS/BES traffic will take that route and not consume your wireless plan bytes.
