Yes, exactly.

Parallel keys means to use the major & minor scales rooted on the same note. C major & C minor, for example.

As opposed to the idea of relative keys: C major & A minor, for example.

Some the tutorials that I linked do that. They use pentatonic minor scale as the basic framework to play & visualize, but then add notes from pentatonic & diatonic major to target chord tones.
