Not always. Josh's misfire was similar to what I experienced in my Sport. The car idled and accelerated just fine in regular traffic, but get it up to freeway speeds (60-70) and floor it in top gear; the engine bogs and bucks. I'm not even sure you could call it a misfire as much as it was just an "ignition problem." The few times I have experienced a blinking CEL with other people's cars (never my own) was when the misfire was so bad that the car could barely hold idle.
