In general you're right. In boxer, or "flat" engines, "horizontally opposed" is fairly common term to describe the cylinder configuration.
I guess someone could use the term the way he did, but that's usually called a transverse engine, not horizontal (as opposed to when it's pointing the length of the car, called longitudinal. what would they call it in his terms? vertical?)
