Absolutely correct. The camera LCD is always brighter because you have to be able to see it in bright sunlight. Especially if your camera offers some form of "live view" prior to shooting. For the camera, the best and most accurate measure of good exposure is the Histogram.
Here's a good explaination of histograms and how to interpret what they tell you.
But think of it this way as well. Only 50% of the job is done in the camera so for all those final adjustments etc., use the calibrated monitor you trust.

Just for your information I have noticed one funny thing with my computer screens. I have two screens on my desk both exactly the same brand and same settings set BUT they show two different colors! I have no idea how it is possible.
