Yes, that's the right way of thinking about it. Or put another way (using your numbers):
Time to kill a bat is two minutes or 120 seconds. The Iksar must kill 20% more bats to earn the same XP as the Human, so we can say that to earn the same amount of XP, the Human takes 120 seconds of combat while the Iksar takes 144 seconds (120*1.2). In exchange for this penalty, the Iksar receives 80 standing regen over that 120 second period, or about the same as is healed with a single bandage taking 10 seconds to apply. So the Human can kill the mob and apply the extra bandage to end up with the same HP and XP as the Iksar in 130s total, while the Iksar takes 144s to achieve the same HP and XP value.
People will say, "Well maybe so, but the Iksar Regen is much higher when sitting," but this is irrelevant, because you're better off bandaging than sitting, and if you're sitting for long periods between mobs your regen rate is not the limiting factor on your XP, it's your kill rate (i.e. imagine you're only killing one mob per hour, the Iksar Regen is obviously useless at that point and the XP penalty becomes much more apparent).
tl;dr Iksars are statistically superior to Human Monks but they look like shit and level slower.
