Seems like it. Though this is all assuming that "Hamura's Tenseigan" in the above paragraph refers to the dōjutsu and not the energy vessel. It could also be interpreted as "Hamura created the [energy vessel] and the clan decided to enshrine it after his death". There's currently nothing definitively saying that Hamura's Byakugan became the original Tenseigan, though it's obviously implied by Toneri's example. Hopefully it comes up when Hinata and Naruto destroy the vessel, if not sooner.
