the answer to your question is no. first off let's try something blatantly obvious and simple. Just pick one string, say the high e string. What's the fastest way to do it? Obviousy it's by keeping the pick as close as you can to the string. That's why the word "economy" is in economy picking, keeping the pick close to the strings is the most economcal way to pick the strings. So when you pick from the g string to the b string, the pick should be kept close to the string. Don't rest the pick on the e string. Coninue the picking motion to the next notes on the b string. hope I'm making sense here. Not resting the pick on the e string is the fastest most economical way to pick. i hope i didn't confuse you.
