Essentially, yes...if you drink more water, then that does result in a greater need to urinate.
However, the purpose of the article was to talk about "preventing" a hangover, which is essentially done in the ways that Dr. Dae suggested: Drink more water by alternating one alcoholic beverage with a glass of water. This does a few things:
1. Helps to prevent the dehydrating effects of alcohol on the system (usually what we feel when describing a "hangover" is "dehydration")
2. Helps to drink in moderation (slows down rate of consumption of alcohol, you feel fuller quicker with water), and drinking alcohol in moderation is the best way to prevent a hangover!
