Harry, that is the case. The front gear on the cluster is "constant mesh" with the input shaft. To put your PTO into gear you put your foot on the clutch to stop the cluster turning. Other wise it is turning all the time the engine is running.
There are many vehicles with single speed transfer cases that run PTOs. As an example the WC Dodge 4x4 with winch. In fact there are many 2wd trucks without transfer cases that use a power take off to run an auxilliary of some sort.
Some gearboxes will accept 2 ptos and some transfer cases can run a pto.
