Yes, that is a tire with a tube in it. The tire either has something like a nail or thorn in it that has penetrated the tube or the tube has just gotten old and is leaking. The puncture in the tube could be some distance away from the valve stem. The easiest way for air to get out is through the hole for the valve stem in the rim. Even though they are not tubeless air still has trouble getting out past the rim and tire bead. No, you can't fix the leak by filling in the hole in the rim/valve stem. If the tube is good there is a possibility that a simple inner tube patch will fix the tube. If you break the tire down yourself make sure you locate where the leak is on the tube and transfer that location to the tire. Try to find a puncture in the tire to see if a nail or thorn is still stuck in the tire. If you find something push it backwards using something like an ice pick. If there is a nail or thorn and it is not removed you will have another leak in a short time. Good luck.
