Very close but not quite. 

Ron pulled Harry AND the Sword from the Lake. That is why Harry thought it should be Ron who used the Sword on the Locket.

Yes, they had the sword when they were captured and brought to Malfoy Manor. But, when they escaped, the Sword was in the possession of Griphook. At Shell Cottage, Harry took the Sword from Griphook. They brought the Sword with when they entered Gringotts. But, while at Gringotts, Griphook took the Sword and scampered with it. From that point on Griphook, or some other Goblin, had the Sword, up until Neville retrieves if from the Sorting Hat.
