Yes, this is essentially correct. We don't find chlorine in nature in an uncombined state, but when we make chlorine gas, it appears as the diatomic molecule Cl2.

triple covalent
What is the structure of a nitrogen atom?
Elemental nitrogen does not exist as individual atoms. If it did, it would be an atom surrounded by 5 valence electrons. Instead, nitrogen exists as a diatomic molecule. The nitrogens in the molecule are joined by a triple bond and each has one lone pair of electrons.
