What if the bosses are accompanied by Mooks are still examples of this trope?

That is still a Boss Battle. In some games, the Boss will summon more mooks if all are defeated, so you are better off stunning them than outright killing. Kill all but one, leave it there.

In Wing Commander 2 for DOS, the last Capital Ship keeps summoning a pair of fighters, each one worse than the last (more advanced model). The last pair is of your OWN MODEL, and nigh UNKILLABLE, and will make your life miserable. So you don't kill both fighters at all, just kill one of the pair before the last Goddamn Bats pair one.

In Truxton, you better dispatch each Boss quickly, because all the mooks that follow come in a predetermined sequence, regardless if the Boss of each stage is alive or not.

TLDR, I would categorize as a Yes.
