Yes words can have two meanings, but given the similarity of context between these two meanings, calling this cursor pagination is not a great idea. It screams of someone that didn’t know about database cursors (which is only one implementation method) trying to describe a method for web site pagination. I’m not blaming the author here for this, as they likely know the difference. But for a new developer trying to Google this, it will be very confusing.
