No that is incorrect. Since your gain from the old property was deferred, it is added as a depreciable basis along with the new property. When the replacement property is ultimately sold (not as part of another exchange), the original deferred gain, plus any additional gain realized since the purchase of the replacement property, is subject to tax.   Please read this for further information.
