No, that is a myth which is repeated frequently. Germany is still a net exporter of electricity and all plans require to be at least neutral in production. Of course, Germany is part of the European electricity market. This means, in day to day business, there is a lot of electricity exchange. Germany might buy nuclear power from France in the morning and France might buy German solar power over noon or wind power in the evening. How electricity is produced and distributed in Europe solely depends on the momentary balance between consumption and production. The grids are interconnected from Norway to the north and Spain and Italy to the South. Also including the UK and of course the whole central Europe.
